I am in love with this One Pan Miso Butter Shrimp Scampi Orzo.
In February 2022, I created an Orzo Recipe Series on TikTok where I created 8 new orzo recipes during the month of February. It was definitely a fan favorite! In honor of the 1 year anniversary of this orzo series, I am creating a February Orzo Series Part 2!
This Miso Butter Shrimp Scampi Orzo is the second recipe in my new series. I love combining flavors from different countries to create a fun new take on classic dishes. The white miso paired so nicely with the Italian flavors of garlic, white wine, lemon, and parsley. You will be tempted to eat this entire pan all by yourself!
As part of my Orzo Series, I partnered with Graza to do a giveaway on Instagram. Make sure to check out that post and enter the giveaway to win free Graza olive oil! It’s absolutely delicious. You can also use my code “CAROLBEECOOKS” to save $5 on the “Drizzle” and “Sizzle” variety pack. The “Drizzle” was AMAZING on this dish!
