Description
A quick and satisfying one-skillet dinner featuring chicken sausage, orzo pasta, and broccoli, perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
- 1 link Chicken Sausage (about 85g)
- 1 cup Orzo Pasta (uncooked)
- 1 cup Broccoli Florets
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 small Onion, chopped
- 2 cups Chicken Broth
- 1/4 cup Cheese (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and toss in sliced chicken sausage and chopped onion. Sizzle for 2 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and broccoli; stir quickly.
- Pour in orzo and enough broth to barely cover the pasta. Simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 10-12 minutes until orzo is plumped and has soaked up the flavor.
- If desired, sprinkle with cheese before serving.
Notes
Don’t overcook the broccoli for a crispy texture. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. Add water while reheating if it gets too thick.
