  • 1 cup uncooked orzo
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
  • 4 (4-ounce) chicken cutlets
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Remove from pan; keep warm. Add wine; cook 1 minute or until liquid almost evaporates, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add broth and lemon juice; bring to a boil.
