Creamy Lemon Chicken Orzo With Cherry Tomatoes

1.0

1 lb chicken breast, cut into chunks

Salt & black pepper, to taste

½ tsp paprika

½ tsp garlic powder

1 tbsp olive oil

1 cup orzo pasta

2½ cups chicken broth

½ cup heavy cream

¼ cup grated Parmesan

Zest of 1 lemon

2 tbsp lemon juice

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup cherry tomatoes

½ cup zucchini, finely diced

1 tbsp butter

Fresh parsley, chopped

Season chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high and sear chicken 5–7 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add butter and garlic. Sauté 30 seconds, then stir in orzo and toast lightly for 1 minute.
Pour in chicken broth. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook uncovered 8–10 minutes, stirring often, until orzo is tender and creamy.
Lower heat. Stir in cream, Parmesan, lemon zest, lemon juice, tomatoes, and zucchini. Simmer 2–3 minutes.
Add chicken back to the pan and toss to coat. Taste and adjust salt and pepper.
Garnish with parsley and an optional drizzle of garlic cream or yogurt sauce.
