Great little dish that can be seasoned to go with just about anything.
Ingredients
- 1 tbs butter, or more shopping list
- 1/4 cup orzo pasta shopping list
- 1/4 cup white rice shopping list

- 3/4 - 1 cup cremini mushrooms, roughly chopped shopping list
- 1 1/2 - 1 3/4 cups chicken broth shopping list
- 1 tsp parsley shopping list
- 1/2 tsp seasoning of choice. I generally use Italian shopping list
- 3 tbs toasted almond pieces shopping list
How to make it
- Melt butter in a med. pan.
- Add orzo and pasta and stir until orzo is light brown, about 5 minutes
- Add onion and stir until onion is translucent, if orzo/pasta starts to stick add 1 tsp of butter.
- Remove pan from the burner and allow to cool, if you add the broth too soon it will boil off.
- When cooled slightly, add the chicken broth, parsley and seasoning.
- Extra seasoning isn't necessary but you can season it to compliment your other dishes.
- Bring to a boil and lower temp to med. low. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes.
- Let rest for 5 minutes , fluff with a fork.
- Add almonds and serve.

Yummy! I did have to add a bit more butter when cooking the onions. I don't like mushrooms so I added some peas during the last five minutes of cooking and then they sat for the five minutes rest which was enough to cook them. I simmered it all for ...more
