Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 oz baby bella mushrooms or crimini mushrooms, sliced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Creamy Orzo:
- 1 cup uncooked orzo
- 2 cups chicken broth or stock
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning or Herbs de Provence
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika, or more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
- 5 oz fresh spinach
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste
Instructions:
Cook Mushrooms:
- Heat olive oil in a large, high-sided skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add sliced mushrooms, season generously with salt and pepper, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until lightly browned and softened.
- Remove half of the cooked mushrooms from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Make Creamy Orzo:
- In the same skillet with the remaining half of cooked mushrooms, add uncooked orzo, chicken broth, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the orzo is cooked through.
- Add fresh spinach to the skillet during the last 5 minutes of cooking the orzo.
- Enjoy!
