A great way to use up fresh veggies with a great lemon flavor. If you prefer a less intense lemon flavor, you can just use 1 lemon and add a bit of water to the 1/2 that you use for the chicken marinade. (Cook time includes fridge time!)
1. Put pot of water on to boil.
2. While waiting for water to boil, chop all squash. I cut lengthwise, then slices.
3. Cook orzo according to package directions. Add squash to pasta/water during the last 2 minutes of cooking time.
4. While pasta is cooking, mix lemon juice and pesto.
5. Drain and immediately run under cold water to stop cooking.
6. Toss pasta and squash with tomatoes and 1/2 of lemon/pesto mixture. Chill.
7. Pound chicken breast to 1/2 inch thickness.
8. Pour remaining lemon/pesto mixture over chicken breast and marinate for at least a 1/2 hour up to several hours.
9. Grill chicken breast; rest for 5 minutes then slice and serve over pasta and squash. Top with pine nuts.

I slice the squash in half lengthwise and then slice.

How is the squash/zucchini prepared? Grated, cubed?
