Orzo with Parmesan and Basil - Free Recipe!
I am sharing this recipe because it is a family favorite, easy to make, and very light.
The ingredients can be altered to make the dish gluten free or vegetarian.
Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons butter or 1/8 cup olive oil
1 cup uncooked Orzo Pasta (we use Gluten Free)
16 ozs. chicken or vegetable broth
1/2 cup Shaved Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Chopped Fresh Basil (my favorite is Greek Basil!)
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Basil
Directions:
1. Melt butter (or heat olive oil) in a heavy skillet with medium heat
2. Stir in orzo and saute until it is lightly browned
3. Pour in chicken or vegetable broth, stir, and bring to a boil
4. Reduce heat and simmer until orzo is tender and the liquid is absorbed (approx. 20 minutes)
5. Stir in Parmesan Cheese and Basil (1/4 cup)
6. Season to taste with salt and pepper
7. Transfer to a serving bowl/dish, and top with the remaining basil (2 tablespoons), and more Parmesan cheese (if preferred)
Perfect side dishes: grilled asparagus or sliced tomatoes
Enjoy!
