Directions:
- Melt butter in a medium heavy saucepan over medium heat, add in onion, thyme and red pepper flakes (if using) saute for about 3 minutes.
- Add in orzo and cook stirring with a wooden spoon until orzo is slightly browned (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add in garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
- Slowly add in the chicken broth; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low.
- Cover and simmer until the orzo is tender and the liquid is absorbed (about 20 minutes).
- Mix in the Parmesan cheese, salt and black pepper.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese if desired.
