I added some Rotisserie chicken that I bought whole in the store to some leftover cooked orzo and came up with this. It was delicious! Could easily be used as a side without the chicken. I plan to add some fresh onions in next time for a little more flavor and texture.
Warm Lemon Chicken and Orzo Salad
- 1 Rotisserie Chicken breast- shredded
- Juice of 1 medium-sized Lemon
- 1 tbsp. butter, cut into smaller sizes
- 1/4 C. Fresh Chopped Parsley (I used curly leaf)
- 1/4 C. Crumbled Feta
- 1 tbsp. Fresh Cracked Pepper
- 1 1/2 C. uncooked orzo
- 1 C. chicken broth
- 1 tbsp. Greek Dressing
- Salt to taste
1. Cook orzo according to box direction, but use chicken broth & 1/2 of the lemon juice instead of water. When tender, drain orzo.
2. In bottom of serving bowl, combine rest of lemon juice, pepper, and greek dressing. Add warm orzo and butter and mix together well. Add chicken and mix well. Add parsley and toss to distribute throughout. Add Salt and additional pepper to taste.
