Directions
Saute orzo in hot oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until golden (about 5 minutes). Add broth; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until orzo is tender and liquid is absorbed. Stir in basil and next 4 ingredients.

Notes: Browning orzo, a tiny rice-shaped pasta, gives a nutty, crunchy texture to this dish.
