Method

1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook orzo according to package directions until al dente; drain and set aside.

2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

3

Add shrimp and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until pink; transfer to a plate.

4

In the same skillet, add diced zucchini and bell pepper; sauté for 4–5 minutes until softened. Stir in cherry tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes.

5

Pour in vegetable broth and lemon juice; bring to a simmer. Return shrimp to the pan and add cooked orzo; toss gently to combine.

6

Cook for 1–2 minutes until warmed through. Remove from heat and stir in half the Parmesan and the fresh parsley.

7

Divide among bowls, top with remaining Parmesan, season with salt and black pepper, and serve immediately.
