Dinner 40 Mins.

Ingredients

2

2 servings

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ½ cup diced red bell pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup uncooked orzo pasta
  • 2 ½ cups chicken broth, or as needed
  • 1 tablespoon prepared demi glace
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 cups chopped cooked chicken
  • 1 cup chopped fresh spinach
  • 2 portobello mushroom caps, gills removed
  • 4 slices smoked mozzarella

Instructions

  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium high heat and cook bell pepper until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic during the last 30 seconds and sauté until fragrant. Stir in orzo and add 1 cup chicken broth, demi glace, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and chicken. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup chicken broth. Cook and stir until liquid is absorbed and add the next 1/2 cup chicken broth, about 5 minutes. Repeat until orzo pasta is tender - you may not need all the chicken broth. Add spinach during the last minute of cooking.
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Place mushroom caps on a rimmed baking sheet. Add equal amounts of orzo filling to the mushroom caps. Top with smoked mozzarella cheese and broil until golden brown and cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
