PREPARATION

1
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
2
Heat the olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
3
Add the chicken to the skillet and sear for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through, then remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
4
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
5
Add the dry orzo to the skillet and stir for 1 minute to lightly toast the grains.
6
Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits.
7
Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the orzo is tender and most liquid is absorbed.
8
Slice the rested chicken into strips and return it to the skillet along with the fresh spinach, tossing gently until the spinach is wilted and everything is well combined.
