Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. First, heat the chicken broth on medium high to just the boiling point. While you're waiting, separate your egg whites from yolks.
  2. Important note- don't try to make this recipe without separating the eggs. It won't work. (Put the whites in the fridge and make a guilt-free omelet tomorrow!).
  3. Put the egg yolks in a two cup glass measuring cup. Whisk them together with the lemon juice, dill, and pepper.
  4. Once the broth is boiling, remove a couple of ladles full into your egg mixture and whisk. Set it aside for now.
  5. Add your orzo to the pot and cook until it's tender (7 or 8 minutes should do).
  6. Whisk the egg mixture again and stir it into your pot.
  7. Sample a bit, and add lemon, dill, or pepper to taste.
  8. Serve hot with bread or feta.
