Nope, not the accompaniment. The lemon chicken orzo soup was so good that I'll include the recipe here in just a minute.
Nope, not the company. The girls were highly complimentary.
It's the FLAT that I have a problem with, apparently.
Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup (compiled from several recipes):
9 oz. boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
3 14 1/2-oz cans of chicken broth
1 c. water
1 c. - 1 1/4c. shredded carrot
1 c. sliced green onion
3/4 c. uncooked orzo pasta
1/4 tsp. ground tumeric
2 large eggs
1 lemon, juiced
grated parmesan cheese
1. Spray medium saucepan with cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook 2-3 minutes until cooked through. Remove from saucepan and set aside.
2. In same saucepan, combine broth, water, carrot, green onion, orzo, and tumeric. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered 8 minutes. Add chicken. Simmer two more minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
3. In medium heat-proof bowl, whisk together eggs and lemon juice until frothy. Remove a ladle of hot broth from the pot and slowly add the broth to the egg mixture whisking vigorously; pour the mixture back into the hot soup.
4. Remove from heat immediately (DO NOT LET BOIL). Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

Thanks Emily for this great recipe! I made it last night for the two of us. A five star recipe in my opinion! Simply yummy!
Glad you liked it! I will definitely be making it again, although I may add a little more lemon juice than called for.
