LEMON CHICKEN ORZO SOUP
Inspired by Panera Bread's version, this soup delivers on flavor. Tender chicken in a lemony broth with orzo pasta, carrots, onions, celery, and baby spinach. This has quickly become one of my family's very favorite soup recipes.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook orzo in the boiling water until partially cooked through but not yet soft, about 5 minutes; drain and rinse with cold water until cooled completely.
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir carrots, celery, and onion in hot oil until the vegetables begin to soften and the onion becomes translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Season mixture with thyme, oregano, salt, black pepper, and bay leaf; continue cooking another 30 seconds before pouring chicken broth into the pot.
- Bring the broth to a boil. Partially cover the pot, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the vegetables are just tender, about 10 minutes.
- Stir orzo, lemon juice, and lemon zest into the broth; add chicken. Cook until the chicken and orzo are heated through, about 5 minutes. Add baby spinach; cook until the spinach wilts into the broth and the orzo is tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Ladle soup into bowls; garnish with lemon slices and Parmesan cheese.

Steps:
- Peel and finely dice one onion and garlic cloves. Peel and slice a carrot. Wash and slice zucchini and chard leaves.
- In a pot heat olive oil to medium. Add chopped onions and lightly fry until translucent, stirring regularly so as not to burn the onion. Then, add garlic and carrots. Stir well and pour in your stock and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, so that the carrots tenderize.
- Add orzo pasta, peas and zucchini, season with salt & pepper to taste and let it cook for another 10 minutes until the orzo is cooked al dente.
- When the orzo is almost done, fold in your sliced chard and chopped parsley, then serve hot.
- Note: If the soup is too thick, add some hot water.
