ingredients

  • 8 ounce Orzo
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1/2 cup Sun Dried Tomatoes -- Chopped
  • 1 Plum Tomatoes -- Diced
  • 1 clove Garlic -- Peeled
  • 3 teaspoon Marjoram -- Fresh Chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 pounds Turkey
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 9 ounce Frozen Artichokes Hearts -- Thawed
  • 1/2 cup Romano Cheese -- Finely Shredded

directions

Cook orzo in a large saucepan of boiling water until just tender, 8 to 10 minutes or according to package directions. Drain and rinse.

Meanwhile, place 1 cup water, 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, plum tomato, garlic, 2 teaspoons marjoram, vinegar and 2 teaspoons oil in a blender. Blend until just a few chunks remain.

Season turkey with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high hear. Add the turkey and cook, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning, until golden outside and no longer pink in the middle, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate, tent with foil to keep warm.

Pour the tomato sauce into the pan and bring to a boil. Measure out 1/2 cup sauce to a small bowl. Add the remaining 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes to the pan along with the orzo, artichoke hearts and 6 tablespoons cheese. Cook, stirring, until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Divide among 4 plates.

Slice turkey, place over orzo, add sauce and a sprig of marjoram.
