  1. In a medium-sized skillet, saute/fry onion in extra virgin olive oil over medium heat till softened. Add in garlic, mushrooms, lamb and rosemary, and saute/fry till lightly browned, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. In a Dutch oven or possibly similar pot, saute/fry orzo in butter over medium heat till lightly browned. Add in lemon juice and optional saffron (steep threads in 1 Tbsp. warm water or possibly broth) to chicken broth, pour over orzo and bring to a boil. Stir in the lamb mix, cover tightly, and turn heat to low. Simmer for 10 min, add in peas, and simmer an additional 5 min. Test orzo for doneness (al dente); cook a few more min if you like. Taste for seasoning and add in salt and pepper if necessary. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 min.
  2. Serves 4-6. Notes: Extra broth can be added if a soupier texture is preferred. To more accurately fit the current Casserole category, this dish can be baked in a 375-degree oven for about 20 min, or possibly till broth is absorbed by the orzo.
