Instructions

Fry the Bacon
1

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the orzo.

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the bacon lardons. Stir-fry until golden, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

Prep Time
2

While the bacon is frying, halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Cut the Tenderstem® broccoli into thirds.

When the bacon is cooked, drain and discard any excess fat. Remove the pan from the heat, then stir in the honey and chilli flakes. TIP: If your honey has hardened, put the sachet in a bowl of hot water for 1 min to loosen.

Transfer to a small bowl and cover to keep warm. Wipe the pan clean.

Cook your Orzo
3

When boiling, add the orzo to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook for 7 mins.

After 7 mins, then add the broccoli and cook for a further 3-4 mins until everything's tender. 

Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

Make the Sauce
4

Meanwhile, return the (now empty) frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, add the onion to the pan and stir-fry until softened, 4-5 mins. 

Add the garlic and fry for 1 min more.

Stir the passata, red wine stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both) into the pan. Simmer the sauce until thickened slightly, 2-3 mins.

All Together Now
5

Stir in the orzo, broccoli, hard Italian style cheese and butter (see pantry for amount) into the sauce until melted.

Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.

Serve Up
6

Share your orzo between serving bowls.

Spoon over the hot honey bacon to finish.

Enjoy!
