Don’t overcook the orzo: Orzo cooks quickly, so keep an eye on it to prevent it from becoming mushy. Toast the orzo: Lightly toasting the orzo before adding the broth gives the dish a richer, nuttier flavor. Adjust the spice level: If you prefer less heat, reduce the amount of Cajun seasoning or omit the smoked paprika. For more spice, add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
