Ingredients
Directions
Heat a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add butter and onion; cook and stir until onion is fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Add garlic paste, orzo, corn, and thyme. Cook and stir until orzo begins to turn golden, about 2 minutes.
Add chicken broth; season to taste with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat slightly and simmer, until orzo is tender with a bite, stirring frequently, and scraping up from the bottom, 8 to 10 minutes.
Stir in green chiles, milk, Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, and green onion, and cook, stirring, until completely warmed through and cheese is melted. Taste for seasoning; add more salt if necessary. If too thick, add a small amount of broth. Serve warm.
