Lemon Pepper Risotto


2 1/2 cups chicken stock
1 cup orzo
1 lemon, juiced
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons mascarpone
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons fresh chives
¼ cup sun dried tomatoes, julienne
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon lemon zest

In a medium sauce pan, bring the chicken stock to a boil. Add orzo & cook for 7 to 8 minutes until liquid is almost absorbed & orzo is tender. Turn heat off.

*I love the idea of adding salmon. I'll try that next time.

Stir in the remaining ingredients. Season with salt & pepper, if necessary, & serve.

(I think 1 tsp pepper is a little too much...)
