An ideal 20-minute dinner! Chickpeas and orzo in a luscious, creamy, max-flavor tomato sauce.
Marry Me Orzo Is So Good.

The final time I made this, I believe I ate half of the batch on my own.
Right here’s what makes this so good, for me:
- The flavors of shallot, garlic, thyme. Mic drop.
- A tomato cream sauce.
- Little chewy, carby, textured bits which might be delightfully all the identical measurement – the orzo and the chickpeas simply WANT to be collectively.
The best way it clings collectively, the luscious creaminess, max taste with the shallot, garlic, and recent thyme. UGH.
We use DeLallo merchandise in all places on this kitchen – I at all times love their orzo (and my good friend swears by their GF orzo) and their Castelvetrano olive oil within the squeeze bottle. However for this recipe I additionally actually love all their little jarred tomato merchandise as an add-in – the sun-dried tomatoes if you wish to preserve it basic to the Marry Me taste profile, but additionally the recent tomato bruschetta (private fave), the calabrian chiles for one thing totally different, or the roasted tomatoes for a chunkier choice.
Guys, a bonus that deserves point out: this comes collectively in virtually 20 minutes. Perhaps 30, tops. It’s simple, minimal reducing board exercise, however nonetheless loads of veg and protein in there. This lady is a teeny bit fancy however she’s additionally weeknight-ready.
Hope you like it.
