Ingredients

• 1.5 teaspoons olive oil or avocado oil
• 4 chickens sausages
• 2 teaspoons garlic paste
• 4 ounces orzo pasta
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
• 4 large basil leaves , shredded
• 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. 1 Heat a heavy bottom pot over medium-low heat and drizzle in oil. Fry chicken sausage rounds until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
2. 2 Add orzo and cook and stir until lightly golden brown, about 1 minute. Pour in chicken broth and 1/2 cup cream. Stir in salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili flakes.
3. 3 Bring mixture to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer until orzo is very tender, about 10 minutes. Check occasionally; add additional cream as needed if orzo becomes too dry before it is tender.
4. 4 Lower heat to low, then stir in basil and Parmesan until fully incorporated. Serve and enjoy!
