Tiny peas & pasta

Quantity		Ingredient
4	tablespoons	Butter
1	large	Onion, diced
3	cups	Sliced mushrooms (1/2 lb.)
2	tablespoons	Chopped parsley
1	cup	Orzo
2½	cup	Chicken broth
1	cup	Dry white wine
2½	cup	Fresh petite peas
1	tablespoon	Chopped fresh thyme
		Salt and pepper to taste
3	tablespoons	Grated Parmesan cheese

In a large heavy skillet, melt 2 tb. of the butter. Add onion, mushrooms and parsley; saute until softened. Remove from pan. Add the other 2 tb. of butter to the pan and heat until sizzling. Add orzo and stir constantly until golden brown. Return onion mushroom mixture to pan. Add chicken broth and wine. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer 10 to 15 minutes, until orzo is tender but still moist.

While orzo is cooking, steam peas just until barely tender. Add thyme and toss with pasta just before serving. Add salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with Parmesan.
