Creamy Mushroom Orzo
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat. Add the onion & garlic, stirring gently. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent & fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add mushrooms, sautéing them for an additional 4-5 minutes or until they soften & release their moisture. Stir in the orzo pasta along with the vegetable broth. Bring this mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat & allow to simmer for about 10 minutes or until the orzo is tender & has absorbed most of the broth.
  3. Once the orzo is cooked, stir in the heavy cream & parmesan cheese. Mix everything together until well combined. Season the orzo with salt & pepper to taste.
  4. Serve it hot garnished with fresh parsley for color. This is a great accompaniment to creamed pork chops featured on the blog.
