Préparation

1. 1
   Chop the onion and garlic. Remove the casings from the Italian sausages. Dice the bell pepper and chicken.
2. 2
   In a large non-stick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Cook the onion, crumbled sausage meat (like ground meat), and chicken for 5 to 7 minutes or until the chicken is browned.
3. 3
   Add the garlic, bell pepper, orzo, and spices (smoked paprika, oregano, basil, thyme, pepper). Pour in the broth, stir in the tomato paste, and bring to a boil.
4. 4
   Reduce to medium-high heat and cook for 10 to 12 minutes or until the orzo is tender, stirring occasionally.
5. 5
   Stir in the broccoli about 3-4 minutes before the end of cooking to keep it crisp. Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Serve.
