One Pot Chicken, Vegetable & Parmesan Orzo (Risoni)
Recipe video above. Tastes just like risotto.... except it's far quicker to make! Also known as Orzo, this risoni recipe comes with juicy chicken, a creamy parmesan sauce and plenty of hidden vegetables. It's a quick one pot recipe the kids are sure to love. (And grown ups too!)

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Heat oil in a large pan over high heat. Make sure the pan is reasonably deep - around 5cm / 2.5" or more. Otherwise, use a large pot.
2
Sear chicken - Add garlic and onion, cook for ⏱️ 1 minute. Add chicken, then cook for ⏱️ 2 minutes until seared on the outside but still raw inside.
onion (, diced)1/2
3
Vegetables and flour - Add frozen vegetables (still frozen ok) and flour, stir until flour is incorporated.
4
Add uncooked risoni - Add risoni/orzo, stock and milk, then stir well.
5
Cook ⏱️ 7 minutes - Bring to simmer then adjust heat so it's bubbling gently (see video). Cook for ⏱️ 7 minutes (no lid), stirring every now and then, until risoni is almost tender (still quite soupy at this stage).
6
Add parmesan, spinach, salt and pepper. Stir through until the spinach is wilted.
7
Serve - The consistency should be like a loose risotto (it absorbs liquid and thickens quite quickly when serving), nice and creamy. Serve, garnished with parsley and more parmesan if desired!
