LEMON ORZO WITH ASPARAGUS
Steps:
- Dressing 1. Place the lemon zest, juice, garlic, salt, and pepper in a deep-sided bowl. 2. Add the oil in a thin, steady stream while whisking the mixture vigorously to form an emulsion. Set aside. Orzo Salad 1. Prepare the asparagus and lay them in a heat-resistant 9" x 13" Pyrex dish. 2. Pour the boiling water over the asparagus, cover with plastic wrap and let sit until the water is slightly warm. This no-fuss method produces perfectly cooked asparagus. 3. Remove the asparagus to your cutting board and cut diagonally in two-inch pieces. Set aside. 4. Place the chicken stock and water in a large pot and bring to a boil. Add the salt and turmeric and bring back to a boil. 5. Add the orzo and cook until tender-about 10 to 12 minutes. 6. Drain, but do not rinse. 7. Place the hot orzo in a spacious, heat-resistant bowl and add the asparagus and green onions. Whisk the dressing if needed and pour it over the salad. Mix well. Note: The dressing tastes strong until absorbed by the hot orzo. 8. Cool to room temperature. Adjust seasonings as needed before serving. 9. Decorate with the lemon slices.
