Roasted Red Pepper Orzo
Ingredients:
1 tsp butter and 1 tbsp olive oil
1 roasted red pepper, chopped
2 tbsp onion, chopped
1 c dry orzo
2.5 cups chicken broth
Approximately 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese
Directions:
To roast the pepper, I put it under the broiler, and turned it every few minutes until all sides were blackened. Then I put it in a bowl, covered it with plastic wrap, and let it sweat for about 15 minutes. After sweating it is really easy to peel off the skin. Seed and chop the pepper.
Heat butter and oil in a pot.
Add onions and saute 1-2 minutes.
Add orzo and toss until coated.
Add broth, bring to a boil, then turn heat to low. Cover and let simmer until broth is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Stir in roasted red peppers and cheese.
