Follow these simple steps to create your Easy High Protein Chicken Orzo:

1. Prepare Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and paprika.
2. Heat Oil: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
3. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the pot and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
4. Sauté Aromatics: In the same pot, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes.
5. Add Orzo: Stir in the orzo pasta and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing it to toast slightly.
6. Pour in Broth: Add the chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
7. Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the pot. Stir in the chopped spinach, allowing it to wilt.
8. Cook Until Tender: Cover and let simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the orzo is al dente, stirring occasionally.
9. Finish and Serve: Once cooked, remove from heat. If desired, stir in grated Parmesan cheese for extra creaminess. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Each step is designed to keep the process smooth and enjoyable, ensuring that you create a delicious meal with minimal fuss.
