Instructions

• Place 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small microwave-safe bowl; bring to room temperature. Wash and dry produce. • Halve, peel, and dice onion into ¼-inch pieces. Trim, peel, and quarter carrots lengthwise; cut crosswise into ¼-inch-thick pieces. Trim and quarter zucchini lengthwise; cut crosswise into ½-inch-thick pieces.

• Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pot (large pot for 4 servings) over medium-high heat. Add chicken and onion; season with salt (we used ½ tsp; 1 tsp for 4) and pepper. Cook, undisturbed, until chicken is browned on one side, about 2 minutes (it'll finish cooking in the next step). • Stir in carrots, zucchini, mirepoix paste, stock concentrates, and 2 ½ cups water (5 cups for 4). Cover and bring to a boil.

• Once soup is boiling, stir in orzo. Reduce to a simmer. Cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender, orzo is al dente, and chicken is cooked through, 10-12 minutes more. • Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

• While soup simmers, halve and toast ciabatta. Spread with softened butter (if butter is not yet softened, microwave for 5-10 seconds). Halve ciabatta on a diagonal. • Divide soup between bowls. Serve with ciabatta toast on the side.

Poultry is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
