Boursin Orzo with Chicken

This savory dish features the creamy goodness of Boursin cheese, golden-brown chicken, and perfectly cooked orzo. With just the right blend of herbs and spices, it’s sure to impress your family and friends.

Ingredients:

1 cup orzo pasta
2 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 package (5.2 oz) Boursin cheese (garlic & herb)
1 cup spinach leaves
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions:

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the orzo and toast for a couple of minutes until it starts to turn golden. This step enhances the flavor of the pasta.
Slowly pour in the chicken broth, stirring to combine. Allow the orzo to cook, stirring occasionally until it absorbs most of the liquid, about 10-12 minutes.
While the orzo is cooking, chop the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces. Add the spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet when the orzo is almost done. Stir until the spinach has wilted.
Lower the heat and stir in the Boursin cheese, mixing until it melts and combines with the orzo, creating a creamy sauce.
Finally, add the chopped chicken back into the skillet, mixing everything together. Cook for another minute just to heat through.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your delicious Boursin Orzo with Chicken!
