Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1-1/2 cups uncooked orzo pasta
  • 1 12-ounce bag Bird's Eye® Recipe Ready Primavera Blend frozen vegetables
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup white wine (could use additional broth instead)
  • 2-1/2 cups chicken (or vegetable broth (I use reduced sodium))
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Instruction

  • In a large, deep heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Stir in the orzo and cook for about 3 - 4 minutes until the orzo is lightly browned.
  • Stir in the frozen vegetables and stir frequently for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
  • Add the garlic and stir constantly for about 1 minute so it does not burn.
  • Pour in the white wine and stir for about a minute. Then pour in the chicken broth and stir.
  • Stir in the italian seasoning, parsley, salt and pepper. Let simmer for about 10 - 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and the orzo is soft.
  • Remove from heat and stir in freshly grated parmesan. Serve warm.
