From What's for Dinner? by Maryana Vollstedt. A combination of grains and pasta with subtle herb seasoning, slightly chewy. I was happy to find that my whole family loved this...even the 5 year old! Hooray! It's delicious. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine |
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 cup long grain brown rice |
1/2 cup pearl barley, rinsed |
1/2 cup orzo pasta |
3 cups chicken broth |
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
fresh ground pepper |
1/4 cup chopped parsley |
Directions:
1. In large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft, about 5 minutes.
2. Add rice, barley and orzo and stir until grains and pasta are coated.
3. Add chicken broth, basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat.
4. Cover and simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 45 to 50 minutes.
5. Add parsley and fluff with a fork. Serve immediately.
