Instructions 

chili lime dressing

  • Whisk together the vinegar, lime juice and zest, honey and chili oil. Stream in the olive oil while whisking until emulsified. This stays great in the fridge for a few days - just shake or whisk before serving.

  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the orzo according to the package instructions. When finished, drain and place the orzo in a large bowl. You can drizzle with a touch of olive oil and toss so it doesn’t stick.
  • Preheat your grill to the highest setting.
  • Place the shrimp in a bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss. Sprinkle all over with the paprika, garlic powder, and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well until combined. Spread the shrimp out on a grill pan.
  • Grill the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes with the lid closed, then flip and grill for 1 to 2 minutes more, just until it’s pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp.
  • Toss the orzo with a few tablespoons of the chili lime dressing. Add in the shrimp, corn, feta and herbs and toss. Drizzle with more of the dressing and toss.
  • This can be served warm or cold - leftovers are great straight from the fridge. If you serve it cold, I do suggest keeping some of the dressing on the side that you can toss in right before serving.
