Steps:

  • Heat oil in large, deep skillet over medium-high. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Add broth, chicken, orzo, lemon juice, dill, salt and pepper. Bring to boil, cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring halfway through, until orzo is nearly tender but mixture is still slightly soupy, 10-12 minutes.
  • Scatter asparagus on top, cover again and continue cooking until asparagus is bright green and tender and orzo is cooked through, 5-7 minutes more. Top with cheese.

LEMON CHICKEN WITH ORZO

LEMONY ORZO WITH ASPARAGUS AND GARLIC BREAD CRUMBS

Every spoonful of this pasta has a happy jumble of lemony orzo, grassy asparagus, garlicky bread crumbs, fresh herbs and salty Parmesan. The pasta and thinly sliced asparagus cook together in the same pot, then rest in a lemony dressing while the garlic bread crumbs are toasted, so the pasta has time to absorb as much flavor as possible.

Lemony Orzo With Asparagus and Garlic Bread Crumbs image

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the orzo and cook until al dente according to package directions. Two minutes before the orzo is done, add the asparagus. Drain the orzo and asparagus. Wipe out and reserve the pot.
  • While the orzo and asparagus cook, make the dressing: In a large bowl, stir together 3 tablespoons oil and the lemon zest and juice; season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the drained orzo and asparagus and toss to coat. Set aside while you toast the bread crumbs.
  • In the reserved pot, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the panko and cook, stirring, until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, then stir in the garlic and season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir the Parmesan and herbs into the orzo, taste, then season with salt, pepper and additional lemon juice, if desired. Top with the toasted bread crumbs and more Parmesan if you like. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 cup orzo
1 pound asparagus, trimmed and thinly sliced on a diagonal (about 1/4-inch thick)

  • Add the garlic, Italian seasoning, and orzo. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often (this infuses the orzo with more flavor and toasts it a little).
  • Stir in the chicken broth, lemon juice, and cream. Once it starts to bubble, continue cooking for 10 minutes, uncovered, stirring fairly often. You will probably need to turn the heat down a bit (to medium or even medium-low). It should gently bubble vs. furiously boil, and you don't want the liquid to reduce too much before the pasta has cooked. See notes below for troubleshooting tips.
