35 minutes for cooking\n
Forty minutes in total\n
One tablespoon of olive oil\n
One medium-sized chopped carrot\n
2\u20133 chopped celery stalks\n
One medium leek, cut thinly, only the white and light green sections\n
Two big chopped garlic cloves\n
Six cups (1.5 litres) chicken broth\n
Two hen breasts, approximately \u00be pound or 350 grams\n
One cup (225 grams) of orzo\n
Juice from a single little lemon\n
Thirty grams or one cup fresh dill, cut finely\n
To taste, add salt and freshly ground black pepper.\n
In a stock pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and saut\u00e9 the carrots and celery for four to five minutes over medium heat.\n
After cooking the leek for two to three minutes, add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.\n
Add the chicken breasts and chicken stock after that. After bringing to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, covered loosely, for fifteen minutes.\n
Remove the cooked chicken from the oven and place it on a platter. To prevent the orzo from sticking to the bottom of the saucepan, add it to the pot and cook for ten minutes, stirring from time to time.\n
In the meantime, use two forks to shred the chicken. Once the orzo is cooked, return the chicken shreds to the pot along with the fresh dill and lemon juice.\n
Taste and adjust the seasoning, then serve right away with your preferred crusty bread, if preferred.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
