This was a Betty Crocker recipe that I've adapted for two and to our taste. The recipe called for orzo, but other pasta, couscous, barley, or even rice, could be used. I use my rice cooker for nearly anything! Prep time is for chopping the herbs. Cook time is only for the pasta or rice. If you cook your own chicken, that needs to be included, but I often use canned (like tuna) to save time. The recipe calls for basil, oregano, marjoram, thyme, or a combination. I suggest that you experiment with your own herbs or combinations. Let me know what works best for you.
