Worrying that AI may have got me...

I was worried I got AI-ed with this recipe… When I prepped the ingredients the weekend before I hadn’t read the instructions. Well, they were colorful to say the least… Very colorful. As I was pouring all that liquid into the veggies I realized maybe I should have cooked the orzo in that liquid, I did end up using maybe a half cup of cream, mostly because my container was frozen and that’s all I could get thawed in the time I was making this. Also, I pulled out some of the liquid and added some cornstarch to thicken things up a bit. So, this ended up being served like soup instead of a pasta. It tasted great, but it was not what I thought. Andy liked it, so did the kids! I think next time I’d probably toss the uncooked past into the pot and let it suck up all that liquid. In the end I think someone tossed this recipe into AI to make it sound great… it didn’t, it sounded dumb. No one talks like that. I updated the language to be less…. dumb. I’m sure I’ll get nailed by an AI recipe at some point, I try to use reputable sites, but every once in a while something just looks so good – too good.
Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Orzo Recipe
2 cups cooked orzo pasta
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
1 cup frozen peas
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions and Instructions
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed chicken and cook until it’s browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Once done, remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.
In the same pot, add diced onion, minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté vegetables until they soften and become fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth, heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, and dried thyme. Stir well and bring this mixture to a gentle simmer.
Now, bring back the cooked orzo, the frozen peas, and the sautéed chicken to the pot. Stir everything until well combined.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the mixture simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, allowing it to melt.
Before serving, garnish your pot pie orzo with a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
