Steps:
- Heat garlic and olive oil in a medium saucepan.
- When garlic "speaks", add the onion and saute until translucent.
- Add the mushrooms, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Cook mushrooms until brown and all the liquid has evaporated.
- In the mean time, toast orzo in a separate pan over medium heat, until light golden.
- When mushrooms are cooked, add sage, thyme, and chicken broth and bring to a boil.
- Add orzo, reduce heat to med-low.
- Cook until broth is absorbed (about 15 minutes) and orzo is al dente, stirring occasionally.
- Add pine nuts, parmesan cheese, and parsley. Heat through until parmesan is melted and absorbed into the orzo.
- Season to taste with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
- Serve immediately, with additional parmesan cheese, if desired.
