Big Daddys Lemon Pepper Orzo

    This is a lot like a risotto... nice & creamy. I followed it as is & loved the lemon flavor. Some might find it to be too strong, but I liked it. As far as the pepper flavor... I am pretty sensitive to spicy flavors so I found it to be too strong... I wish I would have used less pepper but it wasn't too bad. I just really don't like spicy & it was just a tad too much for me. But overall, I did like it, I thought the flavors were good & it was easy to make & a side dish that could accompany many dishes.

I tweaked it just a little., This is a lot like a risotto… nice & creamy. I followed it as is & loved the lemon flavor. Some might find it to be too strong, but I liked it.

This is a wonderful side dish for grilled chicken, fish and would work well with picatta. used fat free half and half and only 1/2 the lemon and pepper called for. It was delicious!
