Instructions

Start by gathering all your ingredients. Mince the garlic, chop the parsley, and grate the parmesan if you're using a block.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until it becomes fragrant but not browned.

Add the orzo to the skillet, stirring it constantly for about 2-3 minutes until it's lightly toasted.

Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the skillet. Let the orzo simmer for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally until the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is tender.

Once the orzo is cooked, remove it from heat and stir in the grated parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Lastly, garnish your dish with chopped parsley before serving.
