Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the orzo and cook until al dente, then drain well using a colander.
Transfer the cooked orzo to a large serving bowl and immediately toss with the prepared lemon-olive oil dressing.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a tablespoon of olive oil. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper, then sauté for approximately 2 minutes until opaque and cooked through.
Add the cooked shrimp, chopped green onions, parsley, and crumbled feta cheese to the orzo mixture. Stir thoroughly to combine, then cover and let the salad rest for at least one hour to allow flavors to meld.
Just before serving, fold in the fresh basil. Serve the orzo salad over a bed of fresh spinach or iceberg lettuce if desired.
