Method : Heat the vegetable oil during a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and carrots and cook until the onion is translucent, about 7 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for two minutes longer. Add the chicken broth and convey to a boil. Add the cooked, shredded pigeon breast along side the orzo.
