Garides me Kritharaki (Greek Baked Shrimp with Orzo)
Authentic Garides me Kritharaki: Greek baked shrimp with orzo in a rich tomato sauce, crowned with golden feta. One pan, 4 servings, ready in 45 minutes.
Notes
Always use raw (never pre-cooked) shrimp. The two-stage sear-then-bake method keeps shrimp plump and prevents overcooking. Ensure stock is hot before adding to the orzo. Leftovers keep 2 days refrigerated; reheat with a splash of water. Does not freeze well.
