Simple and delicious every time. When I don't have chicken broth on hand I use two cups of water plus two chicken boullion cubes and omit the extra salt from recipe.

It was good, not great. I didn't have fresh basil so I left it out (suggestion of recipe submitter). I'll try it again with fresh basil to see how much of a difference that makes.

Love this recipe! I add about 2 cups of sauteed mushrooms, a small sauteed onion and a little more basil. If you use reduced fat butter or olive oil to brown the orzo, and reduced fat Parmesan it can be great for Weight Watchers. This dish goes excellent with oven roasted chicken.

I absolutely love this recipe! My sister's boyfriend found it originally and now my whole family makes it. Such a simple concept, but it's a wonderful side dish (or main!) You can add in tons of different things as well, but I love following the recipe exactly - it's perfect!

This was easy and great... I followed the recipe as written. Then only thing I noticed was that it was a *bit* dry... I read in later reviews that others added a couple more ounces of chicken broth. I will add that, as well as garlic, on the next go. Great recipe!

Excellent, followed recipe exactly. It needed a little salt, but amount would change depending on the saltiness of the parmesan. Mixed leftovers with spinach and mushrooms, and made a great meal!

Delicious! We've made this several times as a side dish and loved it. Added browned sweet turkey italian sausage and it was delicious as a main dish with broccoli on the side. YUM! Thanks for the recipe!!

I was doing my best to use up the last of my basil and I don't think I could have found a better way! I forgot to take the reviewers advice and add garlic, but it was fantastic even without it! I did have to keep adding extra water when the orzo was cooking because it wasn't quite cooked enough. I also almost doubled the basil. I will certainly be making this again!

I didn't have fresh basil so I used the dried basil in my spice rack. It was still very good but next time I will buy fresh. Very easy to make and a yummy side dish.

Great recipe. This was my first time cooking orzo and everyone really liked it. I would recommend decreasing the cooking time or increasing the stock since mine turned out slightly dry. I will be making this part of our rotation.

What a nice change from rice or potatoes as a side dish! Other than cutting the butter down to 1 tbsp. I made it as the recipe states, and it's delicious. Definitely a make-again.

My husband and I love this recipe. It is a great side dish for any type of meat/poultry/fish. I don't always have basil on hand so a lot of times I just leave it out and it is great either way.
