Mommas Autumnal Orzo Recipe


Mommas Autumnal Orzo Recipe
The bones of this dish came from a recipe my mom sent me for this dish she totally loves with pork, turkey, brunch, etc. She is a fan of shortcuts (and aren't we all after one of THOSE days) and uses canned fried apples. Use canned or make your own... More

Ingredients
  • 2/3 c uncooked orzo pasta
  • 1 granny smith apple or about 1/3 can fried apples
  • 1/3 c chopped pecans or walnuts, whatever your preference
  • 1/3 c dried cranberries
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
  • Pinch herbs d provence
  • Water for boiling
  • Salt to taste
  • Additional ingredients if frying apples:
  • 1-2 tbsp butter
  • Pinch of brown sugar
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • Salt to taste

Directions
  1. Cook orzo according to package directions. Strain and rinse with warm water.
  2. Meanwhile, peal and chop apple into even, bite sized cubes if using.
  3. Melt butter in a heavy skillet over medium high heat and add apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt to taste. Fry apples 15-20 minutes or until they reach desired doneness (I find they work better if still slightly crisp in the center).
  4. Gently toss apples, cranberries, and nuts with cooked orzo.
  5. Combine cinnamon, herbs d provence, condensed sweetened milk, and vanilla extract. Pour over pasta mixture and toss lightly to coat.
  6. Enjoy warm or room temperature.
