Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
To prepare the chicken broth, peel 1 onion and cut it into quarters, then place it in a large pot along with 2 carrots, 2 celery stalks, chicken bones, and black peppercorns.
Step 2
Pour in 3 liters of cold water, then season with a small amount of salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Cover with a lid, reduce the heat, and simmer for 3 hours.
Step 3
Strain the broth through a sieve to remove solid particles, then let it cool.
Step 4
To make the soup, chop the leek, celery, and carrot, then coarsely chop the zucchini. Shred the chicken.
Step 5
Pour a little oil into another large pot and place it over medium heat. Add all the vegetables except for the peas and sauté for 5 minutes.
Step 6
Stir in the orzo, pour in the broth, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook for 8–10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the orzo is soft, then add the peas and chicken until heated through. Season to taste.
Step 7
Ladle the soup into bowls, sprinkle with herbs, and serve.
