For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth or add a splash of dry white wine during the simmering process. Feel free to customize the vegetables to your liking. Diced parsnips, leeks, or sweet potatoes would be delicious additions. If you don't have orzo pasta, you can substitute with other small pasta shapes such as ditalini or acini di pepe. For a smoother soup, you can use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup before adding the orzo.
