Lemon-Tarragon Shrimp Scampi with Orzo

When your garden hands you a bounty of tomatoes, zucchini, and herbs—grill a swordfish.
There’s something deeply satisfying about a summer dinner that pulls straight from your garden or farmers market haul. This recipe does just that: thick, meaty swordfish steaks meet a medley of roasted tomatoes, zucchini, and okra, all tossed with herbs and piled over a simple lemony quinoa. It’s bright, savory, and easy enough for a weeknight but elegant enough for company.
This version features purple bumble bee and sungold tomatoes from my garden—both packed with sweet acidity and incredible color—but any cherry tomatoes will work beautifully. The candle fire okra (also from my garden) adds a striking visual touch and a light, crisp texture that even okra skeptics can get behind.
