Categories     Onions

Time 22m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 tablespoons butter, divided
1 1/4 cups orzo pasta
3 cups chicken broth
1 onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
1/4 cup fresh parsley
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Brown orzo in 3 tablespoons butter, stirring often until pasta is toasted and golden, about 5 minutes.
  • Add chicken broth to orzo and cook until pasta is tender. You could drain pasta, but I like to cook it down a little more and leave it creamy.
  • While pasta is cooking, saute onions and garlic cloves until onions are soft and translucent.
  • Add onions and garlic, toasted pine nuts, and fresh parsley to orzo. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • You could serve straight away, or you could leave it in a warm oven until the rest of your meal is ready!
