Orzo with Parsley and Lemon Zest

Cook Time: 12 min
Level: Easy
Yield: 4 servings


Ingredients

* 1/2 pound orzo
* Coarse salt
* 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it
* 2 large lemons, zested
* Black pepper
* 1/4 cup finely chopped flat leaf parsley, a couple of handfuls


Directions

Cook orzo in salted water about 12 minutes, to al dente. Drain orzo
well. Do not run under cold water. You want the cooked pasta to remain
hot. Transfer pasta to a serving bowl. Drizzle orzo with a tablespoon
