📌RECIPE - makes 4 portions
Gather
2 tbsp oil (recommend using the oil from the jar of sundried tomatoes)
1 white onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, grated
1 tsp paprika
2 tsp dried oregano
1 tbsp tomato puree
650g chicken breast, diced
300g orzo
Approx 15 sundried tomatoes, finely chopped
300ml single cream
500ml veg stock (plus extra if needed)
Salt and pepper to taste
Approx 50g Parmesan cheese, grated
Handful of fresh basil chopped
Method
1.) To a frying pan, add the oil and place over a medium heat. After a minute, add the chopped white onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened, making sure to continuously stir.
2.) Add the seasonings, tomato puree and grated garlic, and stir through for a minute before adding the diced chicken to the pan and cook for 5 minutes or until the chicken has turned white.
3.) Add the orzo, chopped sundried tomatoes, cream, stock, and mix until combined. Lower the heat and cover the saucepan with a lid. Cook for 12-15 minutes, stirring regularly.
4.) Once the liquid has reduced, remove the lid and stir through the grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil. Cook for a further minute before serving.
