  1. Sprinkle the shrimp with red pepper flakes, salt & pepper. Pan fry quickly in a little olive oil & finish with fresh lemon juice. Set aside to cool. Prepare orzo ( 1 cup cooked for two people) and mix with shrimp (1 pound for two) and full amount of dressing from this recipe. Makes a great summer lunch or dinner.
