Step 1

Saute: Add olive oil to the pan and heat to medium. Add garlic and onion and saute for 2-3 minutes until onions become transluscent. Add white wine vinegar to the pan to deglaze. Add tomatoes, salt, and pepper and saute for another 5 minutes.

Step 2

Boil: Add stock, lemon juice, and orzo to the pan. Turn up heat to medium-high to bring to a gentle boil and then cover and let cook for 8 minutes. Check after 8 minutes to see if the orzo is tender, but not mushy. If not tender, cover and cook for another 1 minute.

Step 3

Finish: Once the orzo is tender, remove from the heat and add cheese and parsley (save some to garnish with if desired) and mix well.

Step 4

Serve: Serve and enjoy!
