| Yield: |
| 4 |
| Ingredients: |
| |
|
1 cup
|
Orzo |
|
1/2 cup
|
Nonfat Chicken Broth |
|
1 1/2 tsp
|
lemon zest finely chopped |
|
1 tsp
|
Dried Thyme |
|
|
Salt And Pepper |
|
1 tsp
|
diet margarine *Note |
|
|
Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese **Note |
|
| Method: |
*NOTE: Original recipe used 1 T unsalted butter...I cut it way back and used lowfat margarine and it worked fine.
**NOTE: Original recipe used 1/3 C Parmesan cheese...I omitted completely.
Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Salt the water and add the orzo.
Cook until barely al dente, 8 - 10 minutes.
Drain the orzo and return it to the saucepan. Add the stock, lemon zest, thyme, 1/2 t salt and 1/4 t pepper. Cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir in the butter and Parmesan just before serving.
This was very, very tasty. Really enjoyed it.
NOTES : We had these for dinner tonight and they were both very good (see Crispy Baked Eggplant, too). We will
definitely be making them again. If you make the eggplant be sure and be
ready to sit down to eat right away...it gets cold very quickly and probably
wouldn't re-heat very well. |
