Harissa Garlic Shrimp Orzo

Method

1. Start by prepping your dried pasta, olive oil, garlic so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the scallions in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the garlic shrimp and let it harissa, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the dried pasta and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Pour in the cream, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a knob of butter right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
