A delightful and easy-to-make orzo dish featuring wilted spinach, creamy goat cheese, and crunchy toasted almonds.
Boil water in a large pot, add a pinch of salt, and cook the orzo until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Stir the orzo occasionally while cooking to prevent sticking.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, stirring occasionally.
Cover the skillet briefly to help the spinach wilt evenly.
Combine the cooked orzo, wilted spinach, and crumbled goat cheese in a mixing bowl. Mix gently.
Mix while the orzo is still warm to help the cheese melt slightly.
Sprinkle the toasted almonds and red pepper flakes over the dish before serving.
Toast the almonds beforehand to enhance their flavor.
Serve the dish warm and enjoy.
Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil or a squeeze of lemon juice for added flavor.
