Butter & Cream Orzo


Orzo is most often mistaken for Rice, however it is a Pasta.  Orzo can be added to dishes like vegetable soups, chicken soups, and even combined with rice.  This simple recipe is a great side-dish with most any meal.

Butter & Cream Orzo

2 cups Orzo Pasta
1 can chicken broth
1/2 can water
4 Tbsp. real butter
1 tsp. black pepper
1 Tbsp. sea salt
1/2 can evaporated milk

Melt the butter in a large saute' pan.  Stir in the orzo until it is completely coated with the butter.  Add the chicken broth, water, salt and pepper.  Continue to stir until all of the broth and water is absorbed by the orzo and it is tender.  Once the liquid is all absorbed, stir in the 1/2 can of evaporated milk.  Stir until it is all combined and heated, but do not boil.

Serve and Enjoy!

Note:  Be sure to test the orzo, because often it will look done, but will still be hard.
