Directions

1. In a pot I add 1 cup of olive oil saute the chicken pieces and add them toa baking pan, then I chop an onion, garlic and pepper in the blender, pour the mixture into my pan, grate 2 fresh tomatoes and a small can of concentrated tomato juice.
2. I add cinnamon, pepper, a little salt, some bullion, a little water, mix them with a fork and add whatever meat I have preferred seasoned with salt and pepper.
3. I add 1 glass of white wine the water and oil on top.
4. When my meat or chicken is ready, they are cooked, I remove them and add to my broth orzo pasta so that I can mix it easily. In 15 minutes or so, when the orzo is almost ready, I put my chicken back into the pan.
5. (You should prefer to take out the orzo a little earlier, it should be al dente because even off the heat it continues to cook.)
