    Utensils Used
    | 1. Cook orzo in chicken broth until tender (add water if necessary). | 2. Sauté the the vegetables in butter until tender adding the garlic near the end to prevent burning. | 3. This is where I usually add a little salt and fresh cracked pepper. | 4. Drain the orzo and combine with the cooked vegetables and add the chopped parsley. | 5. The heat of the other ingredients will wilt the parsley. | 6. Stir in the juice of the 1/2 lemon and olive oil if desired. | 7. Serve with grated Parmesan. | 8. Enjoy. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
