Chicken with herbed Zucchini and Orzo

G was given a choice tonight of Chicken and Orzo, Homemade pizza or Make Your Own Pasta. Again, I was indifferent to what we ate tonight, none of the above mentioned items are that particularly complicated, or so I think. I was surprised that he picked the chicken considered we had chicken last night, but whatevs...

So, I have a guilty confession for you. I love Fryin' Magic. I think that it is absolutely delicious and makes chicken far better than what it is on it's own. Overall, I thought the flavors worked really well together in this dish. I'm not a particular fan of dill, but Orzo is my most favorited shaped pasta. The red wine vinegar gave a really nice tang in contrast to the saltiness of the Fryin Magic (keep laughing)

Fryin Magic
