Ingredients

1 tbsp
oil
1 lb
smoked turkey sausage
1 lb
broccolini, cut into 2-inch pieces
1
garlic clove, minced
1 cup
dried orzo
2 1/2 cups
chicken broth
1/4 cup
freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the broccolini and cook, stirring, until it is bright green, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and orzo and cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the chicken broth and cover the skillet. Cook, stirring often, until the orzo has absorbed all of the liquid, about 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
