Hello there!  The weather has finally cooled off and I am craving some soup.  Recently, I made this One Post Chicken Orzo Soup recipe and it is so filling and healthy.  This soup recipe is incredibly easy to make in just one pot.  You can have a hearty and comfort dinner ready in just about 30 minutes.  This soup tastes like chicken noodle soup with a burst of fresh lemon flavor.

This One Pot Chicken Orzo Soup starts out with preparing the fresh vegetables.  For flavor, chop 1 large white onion, 4 carrots, 4 celery stalks, and 4 cloves of garlic.  Saute the vegetables in a large stock pot over medium heat.  Once the vegetables have softened, add 1 1/2 pounds of diced chicken breasts, lots of chicken broth, and orzo pasta.  Let the soup simmer on the stove for 15 to 20 minutes or until the chicken and pasta are fully cooked.  Add fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley for flavor.

Serve the One Pot Chicken Orzo Soup hot and with a piece of crusty bread.  I like to freeze some of the soup so I can enjoy later on a cold and rainy day.

  2. When the soup is simmering with the orzo is it supposed to be covered or no cover because I made it and it was delis he’s and very filling but reheated there was no broth! I will try to double the amount of broth and dh doesn’t like lemon so I’m going to make it without the lemon juice as a yummy chicken soup (also just a fyi i didn’t put full amount of lemon juice maybe 3 quarters of the amount and it was still very lemony) . Great recipe overall!
