Yield Makes 10 side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (1-lb) box orzo (rice-shaped pasta; not Greek)
2 cups chicken stock or low-sodium broth
1 packed teaspoon finely grated fresh orange zest
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
2 oz finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (1 cup)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook orzo in a large pot of boiling salted water until barely al dente, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
  • Transfer orzo to a 2-quart heavy saucepan and add stock, zest, and thyme. Simmer over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until stock is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in cheese, butter, salt, and pepper and serve immediately.
