    Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Then, add the shredded chicken and mix well.

  3. 3

    Add Broth and Spices

    Pour in the chicken broth, and add thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  4. 4

    Cook Orzo

    Once boiling, add the orzo pasta and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the orzo is tender.

  5. 5

    Finish and Serve
