Lemony Chicken and Asparagus Orzo

When you think about pasta shapes, does your mind automatically think spaghetti, rigatoni or penne? People rarely think orzo and that's so sad, since it's one of the most versatile pastas to have in your pantry. And these 45 best orzo recipes are proof!

What Is Orzo?

Orzo resembles tiny football-shaped, oval pasta orbs that almost look like rice, but it's pasta we promise! It's a short-cut pasta shape also known as risoni and in Italy, known as pastina or "little pasta."
