Shred with forks and set asidePour Orzo into the pot of broth and cover with lid *The orzo takes 9 min to cook so it will be done once all ingredients have been combinedUsing a small bowl, beat eggs and set asideSqueeze 4 tbsp of lemon juice into a cup. Slowly pour lemon juice into the eggs while whisking to avoid curdling the eggsAdd the shredded chicken to pot of orzo and broth. Add one ladle of soup into egg mixture to warm (do this 3-4 times) before adding the eggs into the pot of soup.

MyFitnessPal
We like to cook additional chicken breasts with Greek seasoning and garlic in a pan and add pieces of the chicken to my soup as well as additional squeezes of lemon juice.
