Chicken And Fresh Pea Orzo
- 14 oz boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 10 oz sugar snap peas, trimmed
- 1 cup fresh shelled peas
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small leek, thinly sliced
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1 pkg (16 oz) orzo
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh tarragon
- Combine chicken and stock in medium skillet on high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, about 10 mins or until cooked through. Cool chicken in poaching liquid for about 10 mins. Remove chicken from pan; reserve stock. Slice chicken thinly.
- Meanwhile, boil, steam or microwave sugar snap and shelled peas, separately, until just tender; drain.
- Heat oil in large saucepan on medium heat. Cook leek and garlic, stirring, until leek softens. Add orzo; stir to coat in leek mixture. Add wine; stir until wine is almost absorbed. Add reserved stock; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until stock is absorbed and orzo is just tender. Stir in vinegar. Remove from heat.
