Season shrimp with paprika. In a large skillet heat olive oil and cook shrimp. Remove and keep warm. In the same skillet add onion and garlic and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes minutes. Add more olive oil if needed. Add orzo and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes to get the pasta a little brown and toasted. Add the half and half then the chicken broth.
