All you need is one pan and 20 minutes to make this quick and easy One Pot Shrimp and Orzo dinner recipe. It’s full of flavor and cleanup is a breeze!
This month we’re celebrating the fact that October is National Pasta Month! We all know I’m a huge pasta fan, but growing up I tended to stick to the same few kinds- spaghetti, shells and elbows. That was about it. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I expanded my pasta horizons and tried orzo! I was instantly hooked! I love the shape, how quickly it cooks, etc.
It worked perfectly! This is a one dish wonder. The orzo cooks right in the pan in some broth and then you add the shrimp during the last few minutes so they end up perfectly cooked and not overdone! Finish it off with some goat cheese for added creaminess and you’ve got a real winner in my book.
This easy shrimp, zucchini, and orzo pasta recipe straddles the line between a one-pot pasta a 30-minute meal dinner. But with a healthy dose of zucchini and a bit of heat from Mexican flavors, it should actually fall into the wonder-pot category, because it’s all the healthy flavor bites all in one.
