one-pan comfort food magic.
1 lb. diced chicken breast
1 tbs avocado oil
1/2 tsp each salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning
1/4 cup fresh basil or thyme (optional)
4 garlic cloves, minced
zest and juice of one lemon
1/2 cup sundried tomatoes
1 Boursin cheese (I like the chive and shallot one)
6 oz frozen chopped spinach/kale
1 1/2 cups dry orzo pasta
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
Preheat your oven to 400. Combine the chicken, oil, and seasonings in a 9x13” pan. Add the garlic, fresh herbs, lemon zest and juice, and sun-dried tomatoes and mix well.
Create a well in the center of the pan and add the Boursin cheese. Then, add in the spinach, orzo, broth, and water around the cheese and make sure all of the orzo is covered in the liquid.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until everything is cooked through. Mix well before serving.
