Ingredients: Makes 8 Servings
1 cup Orzo, dry
2 qt Water
3 TBSP Canola Oil
2 each Garlic Cloves, crushed
2 1/2 cups Eggplant, peeled, diced
2 TBSP Basil, chiffonade cut
1 TBSP Italian Parsley, chopped
2 TBSP Parmesan Cheese, shredded
3/4 tsp Kosher Salt
Directions:
- Bring water to a boil in a medium pot over high heat. Add orzo and boil uncovered for approximately 8-10 minutes or until al dente. Drain well, then rinse under cold running water to stop the cooking and prevent sticking.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 30-60 seconds, being careful not to burn. Add the eggplant and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes or until tender.
- Fold in orzo then add basil, parsley, parmesan and salt. Stir to combine and continue cooking until cheese has melted.
