Cooking Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the dry orzo pasta and cook according to package instructions (about 8–10 minutes). Drain and rinse under cold water.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped asparagus, sauté for 5–8 minutes until vibrant green and fork-tender. Season with salt and pepper, then cool before cutting into 1-inch pieces.
- Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, honey, and minced garlic in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then set aside.
- In the bowl with cooled orzo, add sautéed asparagus, sun-dried tomatoes, red onion, basil, feta, and lemon zest. Pour over the vinaigrette and toss to combine.
- Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour before serving. Optionally, top with extra feta and basil for presentation.
