Direcciones
- Remove the center pulp and seeds from the tomatoes, hollowing them out well.
- Lightly sprinkle into each tomato a little sugar, salt, pepper and oregano; place four cubes of mozzarella in each tomato.
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Heat the butter in a saucepan and sauteethe onion in it till soft; stir in the orzo, stirring well so each grain of pasta is coated. Pour in 2 c. of the chicken broth, stir well, and simmer till it is absorbed, adding more broth gradually till the orzo is about three quarters cooked; firmer than al dente (I cooked mine longer-do not like pasta which hard). Taste it as you go and cook till it's as hard as you like. Blend in the Parmesan, stirring it in well.
- Spoon the orzo mix into the hollowed tomatoes, filling them. Place the filled tomatoes in a casserole or possibly baking dish with 1/2 c. of warm broth in the bottom of the dish.
- Bake, covered, for 15 min; remove the cover and cook an additional 10 min.
