Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts (can use thighs if preferred)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ½ cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes chopped
- 2 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup orzo
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ¾ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- ¼ cup basil chopped
Instructions
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken until browned and cooked through, about 4-6 minutes per side. Remove chicken from pot and set aside.
- Lower heat to medium, add onion, and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Stir and let mixture get fragrant for about 1-2 minutes.
- Pour in the broth and bring to a simmer. Add orzo and cook until just tender, about 8 minutes.
- Shred (or chop) chicken and return it to the pot. Stir in heavy cream and parmesan until cheese is melted and mixture is smooth.
- Add spinach and basil and cook until wilted, 1-2 minutes. Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired.
