Greek Shrimp Orzo

This is one of our favorites. It’s delicious, satisfying and reheats well. My husband would rather have “the orzo dish” than go out to eat. Serve it with crusty bread and salad.

2 tablespoons minced fresh basil or 2 teaspoons dried basil
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1-1/2 tablespoons chopped shallot
