Instructions

Instructions to make Zucchini Orzotto:

1. In a shallow pan or large saucepan, add the oil, allow it to get nice and hot over medium high heat, add the zucchini and saute until they soften and develop some caramelized color, about 10 minutes (stirring often).
2. Add the orzo, stir it around the zucchini cooking them together for about a minute, add the stock, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 10 to 15 minutes or until the orzo is fully cooked and it’s absorbed all the liquid.
3. Season to taste with some salt and pepper, stir in the cheese and butter and dig in!

Pulse to chop, then while continuing to pulse, slowly. Orzotto is a delicious dish common in Italian cookery. It's similar to risotto but it's made with pearl barley instead of rice. While both rice and pearl barley are nutritious, pearl barley is healthier than even brown rice because it contains around twice the fibre and calcium. For the orzotto: Place vegetable broth in a small saucepan and bring to a bare simmer.
