Cheesy Orzo

Got this recipe from Rachel Ray!

2 tbsp EVOO
1/2 small onion, chopped (this gives some of the flavor to the dish, so I highly recommend using it)
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 cans (14 oz) chicken broth
2 cups orzo (found in the pasta section)
1/2 cup grated parmigiano or romano cheese (I used MUCH more than that! lol)
salt and pepper

Preheat covered pot at medium-high heat. Add oil, onion and garlic. Sautee for 2 or 3 minutes. Add broth to the pan and bring to a boil. Stir in orzo and return broth to a boil. Cover pot and reduce heat to simmer. Cook 15 minutes, (stirring occasionally) or until liquid is absorbed and pasta is tender. Remove lid and stir in cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
