Easy 1-pan Lemon Orzo Pasta With Shrimp
  1. Season shrimp with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika

  2. In a pan, on medium high heat, spray avocado oil then sear the shrimp and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove shrimp and set to the side.

  3. In the same pan, turn heat to medium low, add shallots and minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes

  4. Stir in orzo pasta and let it toast for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. Gradually add broth to the orzo, stirring often, until the orzo is cooked and creamy, about 10-15 minutes. Add more broth as needed to keep the orzo from sticking.

  6. Add lemon juice+zest, half n half, Parmesan cheese and the asparagus

  7. Garnish parsley and chili flakes then enjoy
