Instructions

Step 1
Start by heating a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced chicken to the pan, season with salt, pepper and oregano and cook until it is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
Step 2
In the same pan, add diced red onion and chopped broccoli florets, and saute until the veggies are tender, for about 3-4 minutes.
Step 3
Next, add orzo to the skillet and pour in chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the orzo is cooked through.
Step 4
When the orzo is done, stir in shredded cheddar cheese until it is melted and evenly distributed. Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet, and stir everything together. Finally, serve the Creamy Chicken Cheddar Orzo hot, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives.
