Okay, while not authentic pilaf, this is a very nice accompaniment to a grilled steak with chimichurri!
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup orzo pasta
1 3/4 cups chicken stock
1 cup rice
1/4 cup marinated roasted red peppers or 1/4 cup pimiento, drained and finely chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons sweet smoked paprika
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, melt the butter, over medium heat; cook orzo, stirring until toasted and golden, about 3 minutes.
2. Stir in chicken stock, rice, pimientos, chili powder, paprika and bring to a boil.
3. Lower heat, cover, and simmer until tender, about 18 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork.
