INGREDIENTS

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium leek - halved lengthwise, sliced crosswise ½" thick
1 celery stalk, sliced crosswise ½" thick
12 ounces skinless, boneless chicken thighs
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 freshly ground pepper
½ cup orzo

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add leek and celery and cook, stirring often, until vegetables are soft, 5-8 minutes. Add chicken and broth; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, 15-20 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Let cool, then shred chicken into bite-size pieces.

3. Remove pot from heat. Stir in chicken and dill. Serve with lemon halves for squeezing over.
