- 1 cup uncooked orzo pasta
 
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided

- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
 
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
 
- 5 green onions, chopped

- Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add orzo pasta, cook for 5 minutes, or until al dente. Drain.
 
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the lamb and garlic in the skillet. Season lamb with coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook until evenly browned. Remove from heat, and drain.
