lemon chicken orzo

This has to be one of the BEST meals I've ever made. The picture doesn't do it justice. It was delicious, quick, and refreshing. I've never had or cooked orzo before, but I really liked it and will be trying more recipes like this one. I didn't have all of the ingredients on hand and omitted a few things, but it was still amazing! I'm pretty sure I saw this recipe on a blog, but I have not been able to find it again to give proper credit. So if it was your blog, thank you!

1. Cook orzo according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water until pasta feels cool to the touch. Drain and place in a large salad bowl.
2. While orzo cooks, combine lemon rind, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, garlic, honey, and black pepper. Whisk to combine.
