Directions
In a medium-sized heavy saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add barley and

stir for 1 minute more. Pour in chicken stock and bring to a boil. Add orzo
and thyme. Stir once, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.

Stir in chives or scallion greens. Season with salt and pepper. Serves 4.
(Footnote: I am perplexed by that "cutlet cut in half." Which way, do you
think? Personally, I would do it the long way, that is making two long,
thinner pieces from the thicker cutlet so it would cook quickly.
