Beer, Orzo And Chicken

• 1/2 cup orzo pasta
• 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
• 2 teaspoons canola oil
• 1 pound boneless chicken thighs
• 1/2 onion, minced
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup tomato sauce
• 1/2 cup pimentos, drained
• 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
• 1/2 cup frozen petite peas
• salt and pepper to taste

1. Place the orzo in a small bowl. Pour enough beer into the bowl to cover the orzo; set the remaining beer aside.
2. Heat the oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. Drain the fat from the skillet and lower heat to medium. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onions are translucent.
3. Pour in the orzo mixture, the rest of the beer, chicken broth, tomato sauce, pimentos, and turmeric; cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the peas; simmer another 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
