Recipes:
For the Meatballs:
1 lb ground chicken
1/2 cup finely chopped mushrooms (cremini or button)
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon truffle oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 large egg
1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
For the Parmesan Orzo:
1 cup orzo pasta
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped parsley (for garnish)
Directions:
Prepare the Meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, mushrooms, panko, Parmesan, truffle oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and
egg. Mix until well incorporated.
Roll the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through (about 8-10
minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.
Prepare the Parmesan Orzo: In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the orzo and cook according to package instructions, stirring
occasionally.
Once the orzo is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, stir in the Parmesan cheese, butter, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until creamy and well
combined.
Serve: Plate the Parmesan orzo and top with the truffle mushroom chicken meatballs. Garnish with chopped parsley and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan if desired.
