SaveSummary
Every spoonful of this pasta has a happy jumble of lemony orzo, grassy asparagus, garlicky bread crumbs, fresh herbs and salty Parmesan. The pasta and thinly sliced asparagus cook together in the same pot, then rest in a lemony dressing while the garlic bread crumbs are toasted, so the pasta has time to absorb as much flavor as possible.
Ingredients
- Kosher salt and black pepper
- 1 cup orzo
- 1 pound asparagus, trimmed and thinly sliced on a diagonal (about 1/4-inch thick)
- 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest plus 3 tablespoons lemon juice, plus more as needed (from about 1 large lemon)
- 1/2 cup panko or homemade bread crumbs
- 1 small garlic clove, finely grated
- 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
- 1/2 cup fresh dill, mint or parsley leaves (or any combination), torn if large
