Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the sliced chicken sausage and cook until the pieces are golden brown, approximately 5 to 7 minutes.
- Next, stir in 3 minced garlic cloves and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Now, toss in 2 cups of broccoli florets, stirring them with the sausage and garlic. Sauté the mixture for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
- Pour in 1 cup of orzo pasta along with 4 cups of chicken broth, 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cover the pot. Let it cook for 10 to 12 minutes.
- Remove the pot from heat and stir in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese until it melts and blends seamlessly into the orzo.
- Finally, garnish your Chicken Sausage and Broccoli Orzo with freshly chopped parsley before serving hot.
