Ingredients
Method
- In a large Dutch oven or stockpot, combine chicken broth and chicken breasts. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat, and simmer, covered, for 1 hour, or until chicken is tender.
- Remove chicken from broth. Let cool slightly; remove and discard bones. Shred chicken into bite-size pieces; set aside.
- Add carrots, celery, and onion to Dutch oven. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 15 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Add orzo; cook for 10 minutes. Add reserved chicken, lemon juice, rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, stirring to combine. Garnish with fresh rosemary, if desired.
