Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 10/01/2013 I used a smoked chicken from whole foods, and the smoky flavor added a nice touch. I also added about 1/3 cup of homemade roasted tomato salsa. This was delicious. But without the salsa, I think it would have been too bland. I'm glad I read the reviews first. This recipe (with the little tweak!) is definitely a keeper. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 07/25/2013 This is easy and great for hot weather (light) I added a lot more flavor by cooking the orzo in chicken broth, adding feta and a little bit of lemon juice to the dish as well as some fresh parsley. These are easy addictions/fixes to increase the flavor otherwise this is indeed far too bland. Martha Stewart Member Rating: 5 stars 06/12/2012 My husband and I love this recipe. It's simple, but delicious. With adequate salt and pepper we don't find it bland in the least. It's great warm, at room temperature or cold. It would be wonderful at a picnic or pot luck. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 12/24/2010 I don't like it. And I am wondering why anyone would want to use orzo instead of natural brown rice? And water instead of chicken stock? Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 07/23/2010 At the end, when you mix everything together, you definitely need to season generously. And when they say generously, they mean a lot. Loved this recipe, even if it does take a good amount of prep (pulling apart the rotisserie chicken, cutting up the green beans, and in my case, I did fresh corn from the cob). Just make sure to use lots of salt and pepper! Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 07/20/2010 Quick and easy, but I thought it was bland. It needs something else since the only thing giving it flavor is the garlic. I added grated Parmesan, but it still needed more flavor. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 10/04/2009 This is delicious Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 09/21/2008 Since I tried this recipe I have made it 4 or 5 times. Everyone I serve it to just loves it and immediately asks for the recipe. It is so quick and easy. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 07/21/2008 Nice simple recipe. My kids enjoyed it as well. We used rotisserie chicken and canned corn instead of frozen. The flavor from the chicken made up for lack of seasonings or a sauce. I omitted most of the added salt due to the store bought chicken. Will make this again. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 07/16/2008 I had leftover rotisserie chicken sitting in the fridge and had just purchased green beans and corn from the local produce stand. When this recipe came to me via e-mail, I knew it was the perfect thing to have for dinner! I used chicken broth to cook the orzo and I used fresh corn since I had it on hand. My husband eyed the dish skeptically, but when he tasted it, he commented that it was delicious! I would definitely make this again. It's a great use of leftovers and summer produce. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 07/15/2008 Great - simple, easy and my 4 yr old luved it! I made it wth asperagus instead of beans....yummy Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 07/15/2008 Kosher/sea/coarse salt has less salting capacity and less sodium than table salt when compared teaspoon to teaspoon. This is why you use more. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 07/15/2008 And the nutrition info is missing (as usual) Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 12/26/2007 Why add all the salt? Unhealthy.Martha Stewart Member

Why add all the salt? Unhealthy.
