Step by Step guide
Step 1
Cook the orzo in salted water until al dente for 5–7 minutes.

Drain in a colander, let the water drain, and transfer to a saucepan.
Step 3
Add 600 ml of warm chicken broth, a little salt, and cook until done over medium heat for 3–4 minutes.

Once the pasta is ready, pour in the remaining 200 ml of broth, 160 grams of butter, and 40 grams of Parmesan.
Step 5
Cover with a lid and let it sit for 2–3 minutes.
Step 6
While the pasta is resting, sauté the scallops. Pour vegetable oil into a skillet and place it over medium heat.

When the skillet is heated, add 40 grams of butter, melt it, and place the sea scallops in.
Step 8
Increase the heat to maximum and sear the scallops on one side until they have a nice golden crust.
Step 9
Flip the scallops to the other side and turn off the heat completely, adding salt to taste.
Step 10
Remove the lid from the pot with orzo, quickly stir with a silicone spatula as if whipping the mixture to achieve a creamy sauce texture.

Transfer the orzo to a plate, top with the sautéed scallop, drizzle with truffle oil, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan.

Top with grated truffle.
