My brother and I were home alone for dinner tonight so I decided to make him a really yummy dinner. At first, I had no idea what to make him, but then I remembered a really delicious pasta dish I had a while back--Orzo with chicken, broccoli and cheese. I was so happy when Grant (my brother) gave me a low 9 out of 10 on the delicious scale! I am slowly moving towards a solid 10 out of 10 (: One of these days I guess I will have to make him a three course meal or something to achieve perfection.
This meal did not take long to prepare either, which was really nice. I was able to make it in less than 30 minutes and keep the kitchen organized at the same time! Woo! I had never made a cream sauce before so I really didn't know what to do when that stage of the meal came around. However, it is way easier than it sounds! All you have to do is combine around 1-2 tablespoons of cream ( I used whipping cream) with 2 tablespoons of regular milk over low heat and stir it constantly to make sure it doesn't burn. After the milk heats up, then you can add a cheese of your choice to make the sauce thicker and more savory. I chose parmesan because Grant always puts it on his pasta. Once the cheese is melted, then all you have to do is throw your cooked pasta, chicken, vegetables and whatever else you want to add in into the saucepan and stir it around until everything fully combined. See, its not that hard!
