Main Ingredients

  • 6 oz chicken sausage

  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup uncooked orzo
  • 2.33 cups chicken broth
  • 0.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

  • Slice the chicken sausage into half moons.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the sausage and brown on each side for about 2 minutes until golden brown.
  • Add the minced garlic and broccoli. Stir and cook together for a few minutes.
  • Add the uncooked orzo and chicken broth, stirring well to scrape off flavorful bits from the pan.
