Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground Turkey 99/1
- 12 oz Broccoli Florets cut into small pieces
- 1 1/2 Tablespoon 24g Olive Oil, divided
- 1 1/3 cup 220g Orzo
- 2 Tablespoons Lemon Pepper Seasoning
- 1/4 cup 60g Lemon Juice
- 2 Tablespoons 30g Dijon Mustard
- 2 1/2 cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth
For Finishing
- 1 cup Skim Milk
- 1 oz Unsalted Butter
- 2 oz Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1 Tbsp olive oil. Add the broccoli and toss in the oil. Pan roast until the broccoli turns dark green and is slightly charred in places, about 5-6 minutes. Set aside.
- Add the remaining 1/2 Tbsp olive oil and the ground turkey. Brown one side for 3-4 minutes before breaking apart and fully cooking.
- Once cooked, push to one side of the pan and add the orzo. Toast for 1-2 minutes until golden before adding the lemon pepper seasoning, lemon juice, dijon, and chicken broth. Stir everything together, cover, and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring every 2-3 minutes, until the broth is absorbed.
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in the butter, milk, and freshly grated parmesan. Add the roasted broccoli and stir everything together.
- Serve with freshly grated black pepper and parmesan, chili flakes, a drizzle of olive oil or Calabrian chili oil, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
