Basil & Mint Orzo Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups chicken broth
3/4 cup orzo pasta
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
3/4 cup grape tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaf
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves

Preparation

Pour the broth into a saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the orzo. Cover partially and cook until the orzo is tender but still firm to the bite, stirring frequently, about 7 minutes.
Drain the orzo and transfer to a large wide bowl. Set aside to cool completely.
Meanwhile, mix the vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt, pepper and oil in a blender; pour over pasta and mix well.
Add tomatoes, onion, basil and mint; stir well. Season the salad, to taste, with salt and pepper, and serve at room temperature.
