Creamy Instant Pot Garlic Parmesan Orzo

Naturally we start with orzo. We’ll use 1 cup for this recipe. Remember, these little “grains” of pasta will puff up in size when finished. The orzo will be cooked in 2 cups of chicken broth. This gives the pasta a much needed flavor boost that we wouldn’t normally get by just using water. We’ll add 2 tablespoons of butter to the mix during cooking. This helps create the creamy texture and also helps to prevent the orzo from sticking together during cooking. Of course, we need garlic. A whole tablespoon of minced garlic will do the trick. I love to use the jars of minced garlic. They’re a great step saver. Finally, a ½ cup of grated parmesan cheese, some dried parsley flakes and a couple of tablespoons of milk will round out our delicious dish. You can add a pinch of salt to taste as well. All easy ingredients. Naturally we start with orzo. We’ll use 1 cup for this recipe. Remember, these little “grains” of pasta will puff up in size when finished.
