CREAMY PARMESAN ORZO



Creamy Parmesan Orzo image

From Cooking Light, this is a wonderful side or light main dish. It is good even without the pine nuts if you don't have them on hand, also any herb will work for the basil, you just may need a little more or less depending on the herb.

CREAMY ORZO WITH ASPARAGUS & PARMESAN RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Creamy Orzo with Asparagus & Parmesan Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by wing118677

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup orzo
1 cup asparagus, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1/4 to 1/2 cup cream
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Salt & Pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large sauce pan of water (filled about halfway) to a boil over medium heat. Cook the orzo until tender, about 10 minutes. After the orzo has been cooking for about 5 minutes, add the asparagus to the same pot (this will allow the orzo and asparagus to cook in the same pot and keep the clean-up to a minimum!). Once the orzo and asaparagus are cooked and tender, drain and return to the pot. Quickly add the parmesan cheese and butter. Stir thoroughly, allowing both the cheese and butter to melt. Slowly add the cream to the mixture, while stirring. Continue to stir and add cream until you reach your desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper. Voila! You have a delicious side dish! Serve immediately.
