Instructions

Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the orzo. Cook and stir the orzo constantly until it turns a golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Then add the garlic and cook for about a minute longer.

Pour the broth and the rice into the skillet, stir, and allow to come to a boil. Reduce heat to low (make sure it keeps simmering) and cover with a lid.

Simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for a few minutes. Fluff the rice pilaf with a fork before serving.
