Creamy Chicken Orzo
We love Orzo! It's a tiny pasta that looks like rice but taste like pasta! 1 cup is plenty for this recipe! It's great used in many different recipes! It's ready in a jif and you only use one skillet or pot! I like using my big, roomy skillet!
Awesome dinner! Nice and creamy! Yum!
