🌱🍽️ Easy Dinner Idea!!
One Pot Recipe: Broccolini, Chicken Sausage, and Orzo 🥦🍲
📚 Between back to school, soccer and baseball practice I’ve been looking for easy, but delicious recipes for dinner. I fell down the rabbit hole of “one pot” recipes and found some good ones! My first up has veggies, it’s tasty and has the easiest clean up since it’s all made in one pot! Let me know if you try it!
🥘 One Pot Recipe: Broccolini, Chicken Sausage, and Orzo 🥘
INGREDIENTS
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 8 ounces fully cooked hot Italian chicken sausage, cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
* 2 bunches broccolini (about 1 pound), coarsely chopped
* Kosher salt
* Freshly ground black pepper
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 cup orzo pasta
* 2 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
* 1/2 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Heat the oil in a 10-inch regular or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until evenly browned on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the broccolini & sauté until vibrant green and almost tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic & orzo, sauté about 1 minute.
2. Add the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Cover, reduce to a simmer, and cook until the pasta is al dente and the liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes or according to your orzo's package instructions. (If the pasta is cooked before the liquid is completely absorbed, uncover the skillet and let it simmer for an extra minute to evaporate it.) Stir in the 1/2 cup of Parmesan and season as needed with salt and pepper. Garnish with additional grated cheese.
