Pasta night just got so easy, it’s ridiculous. Everything in this recipe (and we really mean everything) comes together in a single pan. And since the orzo is cooked risotto-style, with the minimal amount of water it needs to get al dente, you don’t even have to drain it. The only thing that’s not minimal is the flavor: with chicken sausage, warmed tomatoes, and Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses, taste-wise, it’s about as big and bold as you can get.

Instructions

1

Wash and dry all produce. Preheat broiler to high. Mince garlic. Finely chop spinach until you have 1 cup very packed spinach. Halve tomatoes. Pick parsley leaves from stems and finely chop; discard stems.

2

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large, tall-sided pan over medium-high heat (use an ovenproof pan if you have one). Add sausage to pan, breaking up meat into pieces. Cook until just browned, about 3 minutes.

3

Add tomatoes and garlic to pan with sausage. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes start to wilt, 2-3 minutes. Add ⅔ cup orzo and ½ TBSP Italian seasoning (we sent more of both). Cook, stirring, until orzo is coated in juices, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.

4

Add 2 cups water, stock concentrate, and a pinch of salt to same pan. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to medium. Let simmer, stirring occasionally, until orzo is almost al dente, 7-9 minutes. Stir in chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes more. TIP: If mixture seems dry, add water ¼ cup at a time until loose.

5

Stir ¼ cup mozzarella (we sent more) and lemon juice to taste into pan. Season with salt and pepper. (TIP: If your pan is not ovenproof, transfer mixture to a baking dish at this point.) Sprinkle ¼ cup panko (we sent more) and Parmesan over top of orzotto. Broil until panko is golden brown, 1-3 minutes.
