Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 shallots, chopped
1 small zucchini, chopped
1 cup shredded carrots, chopped
1 teaspoon curry powder
3 cups chicken stock
1 cup orzo pasta
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
3 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley, a handful
1 cup frozen peas
Salt and pepper

Directions

Heat a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan in a slow stream. Add garlic, shallots, zucchini and carrots. Saute 5 minutes. Add curry, chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add orzo and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally until pasta absorbs the liquid and is al dente in texture, 10 minutes. Uncover and stir in cheese, parsley and peas. Season with salt and pepper, to your taste.

Amazing!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This recipe is really really good! It was super easy and a good way to load up on veggies. We also substituted corn for... carrots, which I highly recommend. Great as a main dish or side. Read more

YUM-O!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This has quickly become a favorite lenten main dish in our house. Even my 13 month old twins love it! We made one change -... omitted the curry and added oregano. So delicious!!Read more

Great side dish.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I think this is supposed to be a side dish, but I think its good enough for dinner alone. I added a red bell pepper and a... yellow summer squash, really good. Read more
