Creamy Garlic Mushroom Orzo
00:02
This creamy garlic mushroom orzo will soon be your comfort food go-to, without stress.
00:08
Tender orzo pasta blends with garlicky cream, flavor-rich mushrooms, and silky spinach.
00:14
Despite its fancy appearance, this foolproof recipe suits novices,
00:18
presenting an impressive combination of earthy flavors and delighting compliments.
00:23
For the pasta, use 8 ounces of uncooked orzo and cook it in generously salted boiling water.
00:28
For the mushroom base, you'll need 3 tablespoons butter, divided, 1 pound mixed mushrooms sliced,
00:35
1 large shallot, minced, 5 large garlic cloves minced, and 1 half teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes.
00:43
For the creamy sauce, collect 1 half cup heavy cream, fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste,
00:50
1 ounce freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and 1 cup reserved starchy pasta water.
00:54
For the fresh finishing touches, get 2 handfuls of fresh baby spinach,
00:59
1 half cup loosely packed chopped fresh basil,
01:03
zest and juice of 1 small lemon,
01:05
and extra Parmesan cheese for serving.
01:08
Heat a large saucepan of salt water to a boil.
01:11
Water should be ocean-tasting for seasoning.
01:13
Brown mushrooms in batches by heating 1 tablespoon butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat.
01:18
Add mushrooms in a single layer, sauté for 5 minutes until deeply golden brown, transferred to a plate.
01:26
Add more butter and sauté the remaining mushrooms, then cook the orzo.
01:30
While the orzo cooks, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the sauté pan with minced shallot, garlic,
01:37
and red pepper flakes.
01:38
Sauté for 2 minutes, stirring to prevent burning.
01:41
Aromas should be fragrant and shallots translucent.
01:44
Add mushrooms, heavy cream, salt, and pepper, stirring to combine.
01:49
Let the cream bubble gently.
01:51
If necessary, remove from heat to prevent excessive cream reduction.
01:55
Combine pasta and sauce.
01:57
Once the pasta is ready, use tongs or a spider strainer to transfer it directly to the sauté pan,
02:03
along with 1 cup of the starchy pasta water.
02:06
This starchy water is liquid gold.
02:08
It helps bind the sauce to the pasta, creating that silky, restaurant-quality finish.
02:13
Cook over medium heat, stirring until the pasta is perfectly al dente, about 2-3 minutes.
02:19
Remove from heat and add parmesan baby spinach, basil, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
02:24
Stir gently until the spinach wilts and cheese melts into a glossy sauce.
02:29
Serve warm in heated bowls, garnished with extra parmesan cheese and a final crack of black pepper.
