Creamy garlic parmesan chicken orzo with peas "dump meal"

 Another meal where I just dumped stuff (even frozen) into the pressure cooker and it came out so good!  And it was fast and easy.  

Hit Saute button, allow to heat fully. Then add:

1/4 c butter
1 box whole wheat orzo

Toast the orzo for about 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly. Turn off pot. 
Add:

1 onion, chopped
6-8 cloves garlic (2 tablespoons minced, can use frozen or adjust for taste) 
1 bag (16 oz) frozen peas
4 cups cooked, chopped chicken
1 tablespoon Bouquet Garni (Penzey's) or Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon garlic and herb seasoning
1 tsp salt
5 cups water

Stir. Close lid and lock seal.  Cook on high for 4 minutes.  After cooking time is over, slowly release the pressure. 

Add:
4 oz shredded or chopped parmesan cheese
4 oz of cream cheese, cut into little cubes.  

Stir well.  If it seems too thick, thin down with a bit of milk.  

Makes 8 servings.
