Instructions
- Add 8 cups water and 1 tsp salt to a medium pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
- If desired, roughly chop spinach.
- Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add orzo to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
- Reserve 1 cup (1 1/2 cups) orzo cooking water, then drain orzo and return to the same pot, off heat.
- Add spinach and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then toss to coat until spinach wilts, 1 min. Cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch pieces on a separate cutting board.
- Combine salt, pepper and half the Zesty Garlic Blend in a medium bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Pan-fry, flipping occasionally, until cooked through, 4-5 min. **
- Transfer chicken to a plate.
- Reduce heat to medium, then add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and onions to the same pan (from step 4). Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until tender, 4-5 min.
- Add tomatoes and remaining Zesty Garlic Blend. Cook until tomatoes soften, 3-4 min.
- Add cream, pesto, half the Parmesan and half the reserved pasta water. Bring to a simmer.
- Add chicken and any juices from the plate. (TIP: For a lighter sauce, add more pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
- Divide orzo and spinach between bowls.
- Top with 'Marry Me' chicken and sauce.
- Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over top.
If you've opted to get chicken breasts, prep and cook them in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the chicken tenders.
