Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Orzo

Directions

  1. 1Start by melting a little bit of butter in a skillet.
  2. 2Add a little olive oil to the butter to prevent it from burning.
  3. 3Add chopped celery, onions, and carrots to the skillet.
  4. 4Sauté until they start to soften up.
  5. 5Add about a third cup of all-purpose flour and mix all together to form a roux.
  6. 6Cook the roux for about two to three minutes to get rid of the raw flour flavor.
  7. 7Add chicken broth and a splash of heavy whipping cream.
  8. 8Whisk all together and let it come to a simmer until it thickens up.
  9. 9Add your chicken (rotisserie chicken or cooked chicken) and cooked orzo to the skillet.
  10. 10Give it a good mix until everything is well combined.
