It was a hit in my house, my husband and teen son ate 2 plates. I did cook the orzo in chicken broth as suggested by other posters and added a cup of frozen peas during the last 3 minutes. I also added some fresh basil and oregano to the chicken during sauteeing. Will make again. Thanks for the recipe!

First thing I ever made in my pressure cooker and it turned out well. I followed the advice to use 2 hamsteaks and didn't have any dried onion so I minced 3tbs of fresh (and a clove of garlic) and sprinkled it over the veggies along with some pepper. Skipped the salt since there was plenty in the chicken broth and ham. Good, quick weeknight dinner. Thanks for the recipe!

Super simple and quick. I've made it 3 times and made the following revisions: Definitely use fresh basil (2tsp dried should be 2tbs fresh), add a chopped shallot to perk up the flavor, and double the sauce. There's enough fat in this dish already so saute in olive oil instead of butter. To make the presentation more attractive, use tricolor rotini and throw in a couple generous handfuls of frozen petite peas during the last 3 minutes of boiling the pasta.
