Tangy Orzo

This recipe makes a great side dish.  Yes, another lemony recipe!  I actually served this as a side dish with the Pork with Lemon Picatta Sauce.

Orzo with Butter, Lemon & Herbs

Serves 6

12 oz orzo
4 Tbs butter
1 clove garlic, crushed
Juice of 1 lemon
4 Tbs parmesan cheese, grated
½ cup parsley, chopped
½ cup basil, chopped

Cook the orzo as per the instructions. Melt the butter and cook the garlic for a couple of minutes then add the lemon juice. Stir into the orzo with the cheese and herbs.
