Did You Know...
Coarsely ground pepper has more punch than regular ground pepper. If you want to use ground pepper instead, start with 1/8 teaspoon and add more pepper to taste after the chicken is fully cooked.
Purchasing
Orzo is a tiny, rice-shaped pasta. Look for it near the other pastas in your grocery store.
