Method

  1. Season the chicken and brown it in olive oil in a deep skillet. Remove and set aside.

  2. Cook the onion in the same pan until soft, then add the garlic and orzo and toast for 2 minutes.

  3. Pour in the stock, return the chicken, and simmer, stirring often, until the orzo is tender, about 12 minutes.

  4. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, spinach, and parmesan. Season and serve immediately.
