Steps:

- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place the chicken breast in a baking dish. Zest one lemon on top of the chicken and squeeze all of the juice over it.
- Bake the chicken for approximately 30 minutes or until done (this is for boneless skinless chicken breast, adjust cook time if using chicken with bones).
- Shred the chicken into small pieces and set aside.
- Sauté the onion in a large pot with the olive oil for about five minutes.
- Rinse the lentils and add them to the pot.
- Drain the barley and add it to the pot. Squeeze the second lemon into the pot (be careful not to add any seeds!).
- Add in the chicken broth, diced tomatoes, oregano, parsley, and four cups of water. Mix the contents and bring them to a boil.
- Turn down the heat and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add in the shredded chicken breast and carrots and simmer for another 5 minutes.
