Ingredients
- 10 oz Chicken Thighs
- ½ cup orzo
- 2 Carrot, diced
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 6 cups stock
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Big handful dill, chopped
Method
- Sweat the onion, Carrot, and celery in olive oil with salt until soft, 6 minutes. Add oregano and stir 30 seconds.
- Add stock and the Chicken Thighs; simmer 12–15 minutes until cooked through. Fish out the Chicken Thighs, shred or chop it, and return it.
- Add orzo and simmer 8 minutes until tender — it will keep drinking broth, so serve soon after.
- Off heat, stir in the lemon juice and dill. Taste: it should be bright enough to raise an eyebrow. Add salt until it sings.
