Orzo Recipe

	Sheba / All my dishes 7 months ago Orzo is a rice shaped pasta which is very tasty. I make this when we want a change from rice and potatoes. In this dish, the Orzo has to be cooked a day ahead. Prep:10m Cook:20m Servings:8	Sheba

Ingredients

2 cups raw orzo - (Orzo doubles in volume)

6-8 tbsp butter

4-6 tbsp chicken broth

6-8 tbsp freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Salt & pepper

4-5 tbsp parsley, finely chopped

Directions

Cook the Orzo a day ahead in salted water for about 10-12 minutes, or until barely tender. Drain and rinse in cold water. Drain again. Store in covered bowl in fridge.

Next day, melt butter in a skillet, add the orzo and heat. Add chicken stock (just enough to moisten orzo) and stir in the cheese. Add salt & pepper. Before serving, reheat until hot and add more stock and cheese to keep it moist.

Toss with parsley and serve.

Can be garnished with cooked mushrooms or green onions.
