This creamy orzo is so rich and yummy! Enjoy! Ingredients:
5 tablespoons butter, divided |
1 1/4 cups orzo pasta |
3 cups chicken broth |
1 onion, diced |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted |
1/4 cup fresh parsley |
salt and pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Brown orzo in 3 tablespoons butter, stirring often until pasta is toasted and golden, about 5 minutes.
2. Add chicken broth to orzo and cook until pasta is tender. You could drain pasta, but I like to cook it down a little more and leave it creamy.
3. While pasta is cooking, saute onions and garlic cloves until onions are soft and translucent.
4. Add onions and garlic, toasted pine nuts, and fresh parsley to orzo. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. You could serve straight away, or you could leave it in a warm oven until the rest of your meal is ready!
