2-Ingredient Pasta Dinners

Ten 2-ingredient pasta dinners, and not one needs a big pot of boiling water. The pasta cooks in a skillet or a baking dish in just enough liquid, and that liquid becomes the sauce. Nothing to carry, nothing to drain. Stay for number ten: chicken thighs roasting on top of orzo, so the pasta drinks the juices.

Good to know: Two suppers each; salt, pepper, oil and water are free.
