Can you make it with shirmp
Toasting Orzo is dope. Do it when you can like for Turkish rice.
Looks great ❤
Would love your recipe book….love your cooking and your son is the best.
I like your channel because I’m from Long Island and I live up near Syracuse now. It makes me feel like I’m home again. Your accents are superb! 👌🏾
Always easy great recipes! Thank you.
This is intriguing. I see too many dishes with green pepper, onion and tomato, so I'm going to try this one with honey, olives and feta.
Love this recipe, James! Everything about it screams comfort & economical. Thx so much! Can't wait for ur cookbook + destined to by NYT Bestseller!! ❤
I am a vegetarian, and I love watching these to learn how to make new things. i just switch out the meat with other things. (Or tofu) 💜
This was super good. My husband and I dont like the same food but we both loved this dish. Its also very filling.
I thought I cracked my tooth recently because of bone fragments !
Yum! This looks doable. Thanks!
Any thoughts about toastingvthe orzo with your onions and then throwing in the tomatoes? Would this add another level of flavor?
You guys are great and so are your recipes. Thank you!😊
I’m loving the easy recipes.
I agree with the food quality declining. I’ve also noticed a huge decrease in quality of the fabric used in clothing.
I made this today, here in the UK. All my family have had a portion and declared it "Good"
Thank you 👍
Knowing how to break down a chicken is a great skill for a home cook to have.
I rarely make comments in any social media, but needed to comeback here to say: this recipe was absolutely delicious! I made it yesterday, and the only change I had to make was substituting feta cheese (hard to find here in Brazil) with coalho cheese—a Brazilian curd cheese. It turned out fantastic! Thanks for sharing such an easy and tasty one-pan dinner. Definitely making this again!
Cool, this is more or less how I make single pan chicken and rice all the time (I just had it for lunch today in fact). The minor thing I do differently is I don't bother taking the chicken out of the pan, I cook it on both side to temp but just move it to the sides of the pan and leave it in while I cook the onions and peppers, etc. I used to sear the chicken and take it out to finish like in the video but after a while I realized if I left it in the pot it worked out ok because all the extra liquid in the pan kept the chicken from drying out and it gave it more time for the flavors to get into the meat.
Otherwise this "Psuedo-paella" style chicken and rice is my go to. 🙂 I use the same technique all the time, I mainly just mix up the flavoring I'm using.
Thank you Jim and Tara!!!! I have made so many of your recipes and all have turned out great! My wife and daughter think I'm a genius (well that's a bit strong but they think I cook really well. I'll take it!!) Thanks again!
Made this on the weekend. Nice flavours, but I found the ratio of pasta to chicken was quite high. I'd probably cut the amount of pasta by 1/4 to 1/3. Otherwise you end up with a bunch of leftover orzo and no chicken.
Ha, I literally just found bone fragments in the chicken I just cooked earlier.
Boneless skinless chicken thighs… GOATED! The leaner the meat, the better you have to be as a cook.
When I tried this, grease splattered all over my stove. What I cooking too high? There also wasn’t enough surface area available to “brown” the orzo. Was I doing it wrong?
Yum, very similar to a one-pot dish I make using basically the same but with Peppered Hungarian Salami (which is impossible to find lately) and is diced and seared with the chicken (no cheese tho)
Ok, trip to the market to fix this for dinner . You, Tara and your “professional” tester are a great team! Can’t wait for your book! 📖 ❤
