This was a quick and easy weeknight meal that was also really delicious. The orzo cooked quickly and the sauce came together in just a few minutes. I served it with a side of roasted vegetables and it was a perfect meal.

I've always been a fan of orzo, but this saffron orzo recipe takes it to the next level. The saffron adds a lovely floral flavor and the pistachios give it a nice crunch. I'll definitely be making this again.
