Be sure to cook your orzo al dente; if overcooked, the tiny rice-shaped pasta becomes mushy.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup orzo
2 garlic cloves, slivered
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 plum tomatoes, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh oregano
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large pot of boiling salted water, add the orzo and cook 10 to 12 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the garlic and oil and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the garlic from the oil and discard. Remove the pan from the heat and add the tomatoes, oregano, and lemon juice. Set aside.
