I changed the method of cooking as I'm lazy, lol. I cooked the veggies a bit while the chicken sat in the seasonings, I cut the chicken too so it would cook faster. Once the veggies were getting soft I pushed them to the side, cooked the chicken on the other side, then added all the liquid and orzo letting it finish cooking on the stove adding the tomatoes towards the end. I also doubled the seasonings, used half on the chicken, some more on the veggies, and kept the rest on hand if needed.
