Description

Win the supper lotto when you whip up an orzotto. It’s got all the allure (and the Parmigiano Reggiano) of an elegant risotto, but it’s made with small grain-shaped pasta that cooks up way faster. Stir them into a tasty tomato sauce, gathering up lots of veggies as you go. How about some zucchini half-moons sautéed with garlic, wilted leafy greens and string peas for some snappy green moments? How about 10 minutes from pot to table?

Recipe Instructions

10-Minute Tomato Orzotto - Step #1 Boil the orzo & string peas
Step 1: Boil the orzo & string peas
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Remove the stem ends of the string peas; cut into thirds. Add the orzo to the pot of boiling water and boil, 6 to 8 min., until just tender. In the final 2 min., add the string peas. Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and return to the pot. Toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.

Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the zucchini and ⅓ of the spices. Sauté, 2 to 3 min., until crisp-tender. Add the garlic and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the tomato sauce, demi-glace, ½ the remaining spices and 2 tbsp of the reserved cooking water (double for 4 portions); bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until slightly thickened.

To the pan of zucchini and sauce, add the orzo and string peas, the spinach, ¼ cup of the remaining cooking water (double for 4 portions) and the remaining spices. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 min., until the spinach has wilted and the orzotto is combined. Add ½ the cheese; stir well. If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
