Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 red onion, chopped
• Pinch red chile flakes
• 3 cups orzo
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 3 cups chicken broth
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 3 cups chopped arugula
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Instructions

1. In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, onions and chile flakes and cook until the onions soften, about 3 minutes. Add the orzo and white wine and cook until the wine is absorbed, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken broth, some salt and pepper and 2 cups water and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring often, until the orzo is tender and cooked through, about 20 minutes.
2. Stir in the arugula, Parmesan and butter and serve.
