I’ve shopped in quite a few wonderful groceries in Atlanta, New York City and Kingston NY. Boneless SKIN ON chicken is not an item sold in modern America. Skin on, bone in chicken breast packaged in its own is rarely (actually, never) seen. To make this recipe you need a whole chicken which you butcher yourself. And don’t direct your readers to “ask your butcher to…”! What world would that be?

Delicious! A real gem. I used Bosnian travnicki sir instead of feta and it was fantastic.

We made the crispy chicken from the cookbook. We cooked the chicken longer. It mentioned instant read thermometer to register 130-140 degrees. We wandered if that was a typo. On your recipe those words have been eliminated. It was very good. The orzo was great but I agree with less salt. We used 1 tsp at the end. I think 1/2 tsp is about right. We enjoyed the meal. I enjoy Ina’s recipes.

There is an error in the orzo recipe. It notes 2 teaspoons of salt should be added to the orzo after it has cooked. This amount is for the original recipe that uses 3/4 pound of orzo. The recipe here uses just 1 cup. This amount of salt will ruin the orzo! You only need to use 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt. Please update the recipe for the rest of the readers. Mahalo!

You are right! I made this from the published book and against my better judgment put in all the salt. Yikes. The chicken is great though and the orzo will be too ... next time :)

I made this recipe tonight because I saw Jennifer Garner's post on Instagram & thought it looked like something different than my usual. I didn't have dill so I used fresh parsley which worked fine. Also I do not have an iron skillet & think the chicken would be best cooked in one, so I could not do the 'transfer to oven' part of the recipe. This meal was still very delicious and will definitely do it again. Also, another note: it took me longer than I would have liked, so next time I plan on drinking a big glass of white wine & listening to some tunes whilst in the kitchen.

I made this last night. Another fantastic Ina dinner. I hate to make suggestions/changes to recipe reviews but, I added sauteed leek and fennel to the orzo --- perfect!!!

I made it with chicken thighs. Instead of the orzo (too small!) I used rotini pasta. With some spinach it was a perfect, complete meal.
