ONE-PAN LEMON ORZO CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKE HEARTS
From Serena Wolf's Dude Diet Dinners Artichoke hearts: If you have a Trader Joe's, look for their grilled artichoke hearts. They come in a box. They are delicious. With the Trader Joe's variety, I simply cut in half (or leave whole if I'm feeling lazy). Another option is Monterey Farms ArtiHearts, which you can order by the case. A note about the recipe: In the book, the final step calls for covering the skillet with a thin layer of cheese, and broiling it. I don't do this because: 1. I find it totally delicious with just a few handfuls of parmesan cheese stirred in at the end. 2. My children don't yet appreciate the wonders of blistered and broiled cheese. But, I've included instructions for broiling if you like this idea. You'll need 1.5 cups cheese total, if you do. Serena suggests a mix of Fontina (or Gouda or Ggruyère). If you plan on not broiling, you'll need about 1/2 cup grated Parmesan.

Steps:
- Pat the chicken dry and season all over with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet (oven-proof if you plan on broiling the dish at the end, see notes above.) When the oil is hot and shimmering, add the chicken to the pan and sear for 3 minutes side, or until nicely golden. Transfer to a plate.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Add the garlic and orzo and cook for 2 minutes, just to lightly toast the orzo.
- Add the artichoke hearts, herbs de Provence, and water or stock to the pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to a simmer, return the chicken thighs to the skillet, cover and cook 15 to 20 minutes. [Note: Times will vary depending on the kind of orzo you are using, the shape of the pan, the strength of your stovetop. My orzo (not whole wheat) consistently is cooked in 15 minutes or less, so just keep an eye on things.]
- Transfer chicken thighs to a board, and chop into cubes with a knife or shred with two forks. Return the chicken to the skillet. Add the lemon zest and juice. Add a few handfuls (about 1/2 cup) of parmesan and stir to combine. Taste. Adjust with salt and pepper to taste. Add the parsley and stir to combine.
- This is where I stop (see notes above). I find it delicious as it. BUT, if you want to take it a step further, sprinkle a layer of cheese (about 1/2 to 3/4 cup) over the top and broil for 3 to 4 minutes or until cheese is bubbling and lightly browned. Keep an eye on it!
- Serve immediately.

CRISPY CHICKEN WITH LEMON ORZO
Steps:
- Combine the flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a shallow bowl. Remove the tenders on the underside of the chicken breasts and save for another use. (This makes the chicken breasts an even thickness so they cook evenly.) Heat the canola oil and 4 tablespoons of the butter together in a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet over medium heat until the butter has melted and begins to sizzle.
- Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and shake off any excess. Place the chicken, skin side down, in the skillet and cook over medium heat without moving for 12 minutes. With the chicken still skin side down, place the skillet in the oven and roast for 10 minutes.
- Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium heat (careful; the handle will be hot!). Turn the chicken skin side up, add the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter, and continue cooking for 3 to 5 minutes, until the butter is a nutty brown color and the chicken breasts are just cooked through (an instant-read thermometer will register 130 to 140 degrees F). Off the heat, sprinkle on the parsley.
- Divide the Lemon Orzo with Feta among four dinner plates. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and slice each breast crosswise in thick slices. Arrange one breast on each plate with the orzo. Spoon a few tablespoons of the brown butter over each chicken breast, squeeze on some lemon, and sprinkle with salt. Serve hot with a fresh wedge of lemon on each plate.
- In a large saucepan, bring 2 quarts of water to a boil. Add 2 teaspoons salt and the orzo. Return the water to a boil and simmer uncovered for 9 to 11 minutes, until the orzo is al dente. Drain.
- Transfer the orzo to a bowl and stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, dill, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Fold in the feta and serve hot.

MEDITERRANEAN LEMON CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKES AND ORZO
I like this pasta dish because it's different and tastes exotic. Doesn't take a long time to prepare. You could also add capers for an extra touch. If you don't have orzo on hand, bow tie pasta works too.

MEDITERRANEAN ARTICHOKE CHICKEN WITH ORZO
This was adapted from one of those 5 Ingredients cookbooks, but I changed and added to it. Instead of 4 chicken breasts, if they are large, slice the long way while partially frozen. Saves pounding, too!
