Zubereitung von Bacon Shallot Rice Pilaf
- Dice bacon and cook in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until browned and crispy, about 5-7 minutes, turning frequently. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Add orzo to the saucepan and cook, stirring frequently, for 3-4 minutes until lightly toasted.
- Add sliced shallots to the saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in Arborio rice to coat with the bacon fat in the pan.
- Pour in chicken broth and water. Add salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed and the rice is cooked through.
- Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Fluff the pilaf with a fork and sprinkle with the reserved crispy bacon.
- Serve hot as a delicious side dish.
