Ingredients
1 pound chicken breast, bone-in

3 teaspoons kosher salt
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 garlic cloves
1 small onion, diced
4 cups water
1 16 oz box orzo
1 cup or seeds of 1 pomegranate
 
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, mint or basil, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar

Instructions

4. Roast for 45 minutes or until the internal temperature is at 160-165. 5. Allow the chicken to rest for 15 minutes then shred into pieces. Top chicken with remaining juices for added flavor. 6. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a medium size pot over medium heat and sauté onions for 4 minutes.
7. Add the water and 1 tsp salt and bring to a boil. 8. Add the orzo, cover and cook according to package directions over medium-high heat stirring occasionally to prevent orzo from sticking to the pot. 9. Strain any excess water and pour orzo into a bowl.
10. Add the pomegranate seeds, mint, and shredded chicken. 11. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, sherry vinegar, and salt. Toss to combine with the salad. 12. Chill and serve.
