Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Orzo Pasta
  • 1.5 pounds Shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 4 cups Chicken Broth
  • ½ cup White Grape Juice (optional)
  • 1 medium Yellow Onion, diced
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
  • ½ cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 Lemon, juiced and zested
  • ¼ cup Fresh Parsley, chopped
  • Salt and Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion until softened (about 5 minutes), then add minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using) for another minute.
  2. Stir in the orzo pasta and toast lightly for about 1-2 minutes. If using white grape juice, add it now to deglaze the pan.
  3. Pour in chicken broth along with lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil then reduce heat; cover and simmer for about 10-12 minutes until liquid is mostly absorbed.
  4. Add shrimp to the skillet, cover again, and cook for another 3-5 minutes until shrimp are pink.
  5. Remove from heat; stir in Parmesan cheese and heavy cream until combined. Finish with fresh lemon juice and parsley.
