Orzo With Mustard Greens Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain pasta and put the pasta on a large cookie sheet. Drizzle the pasta with 3 tablespoons olive oil, toss, spread out, and set aside to cool.
• Once the orzo is cool, transfer to a large serving bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and toss gently to combine. Serve.

Steps:

• Combine the chicken broth and 1 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat; hold at a gentle simmer.
• Melt the butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the thyme, cumin and orzo, and toast the pasta for 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully pour in the simmering broth and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, then cover the pot and reduce the heat to medium low. Cook until all the liquid is absorbed, 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
• Fold in the cherries, pistachios, lemon zest, olive oil and mustard greens. Top with parsley to serve.

Steps:

• Cook 2 cups sliced Tuscan kale in olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, 2 minutes. Add 2 sliced garlic cloves and cook 1 minute; season with salt and pepper. Add 2 cups vegetable broth and 1/2 cup heavy cream; bring to a simmer. Stir in 1 cup orzo and cook 9 minutes. Stir in 3 ounces baby spinach. Turn off the heat; stir in 3/4 cup grated Parmesan and 1 tablespoon each lemon zest and juice. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, fennel or celery, and onion. Cook until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic, red pepper and rosemary, if using, and cook another 2 minutes. Pour in the broth, if using, or water, plus an additional 2 cups water and bring to a boil.
• Once the mixture is boiling, add the chickpeas, tomatoes and orzo. Reduce to a simmer and cover with a lid. Simmer 10 minutes, or until the orzo is tender. Uncover and stir in the greens, letting them simmer until soft, about 2 minutes.
• Add more water if you want the mixture to be more souplike, and season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and top with chopped scallions (if desired), grated cheese and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in orzo and saute until lightly browned.
• Stir in chicken stock and bring to boil. Cover. Reduce heat and simmer until orzo is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 15 - 20 minutes.
• Mix in Parmesan cheese and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to shallow bowl. Garnish with basil sprigs.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan of boiling salted water, cook orzo 4 minutes. Add green beans; continue cooking until beans are tender and orzo is al dente, 5 to 6 minutes more.
• Drain orzo, and return to saucepan. Mix in lemon juice and oil. Season with coarse salt and ground pepper.
