Preparation

  1. Remove the skewers from the packaging, brush with a little olive oil and leave to cool to room temperature.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, salt and pepper. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
  3. To cook the orzo, bring the vegetable stock to the boil in a medium saucepan, add the orzo and cook according to the packet instructions (usually 8-10 minutes), stirring occasionally.
  4. Drain off the excess liquid and place the orzo in a large bowl.
  5. Stir in the olive oil, lemon juice, baby spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, parsley, salt and pepper while the orzo is still hot. Set aside for later.
  6. Preheat a grill or grill pan over a medium to high heat. Cook the planted skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pieces are nicely caramelized and lightly charred.
  7. Transfer the orzo to a serving dish.
  8. Place the plant skewers on top and drizzle with the lemon-garlic sauce.
  9. Garnish with a sprinkling of parsley.
