- 3 celery ribs, diced
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt-free lemon pepper seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt-free garlic seasoning
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup uncooked orzo pasta
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken works great!)

- Juice of 1/2 a lemon
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste

Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery, and sauté, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and seasonings, and continue to cook for another minute, or until the mixture becomes fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth, and bring it to a boil over medium heat. Stir in the orzo pasta, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until the orzo is tender.
- Add the shredded chicken, and let it simmer for 5 minutes to warm through. Stir in the heavy cream, and cook for 1–2 minutes, until warmed through.
- Remove the pot from heat, and stir in the lemon zest and juice. Adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, and garnish with fresh parsley and thyme.
