- Brown orzo in 3 tablespoons butter, stirring often until pasta is toasted and golden, about 5 minutes.
- Add chicken broth to orzo and cook until pasta is tender. You could drain pasta, but I like to cook it down a little more and leave it creamy.
- While pasta is cooking, saute onions and garlic cloves until onions are soft and translucent.
- Add onions and garlic, toasted pine nuts, and fresh parsley to orzo. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- You could serve straight away, or you could leave it in a warm oven until the rest of your meal is ready!
