Leftover sauteed chicken & orzo --> Lemon chicken soup

Made buttered orzo and sauteed chicken yesterday...

Today, I took half a carton of low-sodium chicken broth and 1 teaspoon of Better-than-bouillon chicken flavor and brought to low boil.

Added cooked orzo (~1 cup) and simmer for 5.
Added leftover chicken (~1/2 lb) and simmer for 5.
Added pinch of oregano and celery seed and juice from 1.5 lemons.

Simmer for 5.
Serve.

Tasted almost exactly like avgolemono but without the thickness you'd get from the egg. Really good for leftovers.
