Equipment

Ingredients

  • 25 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons Greek seasoning
  • 15 tablespoons orzo uncooked(5.25oz)
  • 10 tablespoons diced tomatoes I used canned
  • 6 ounces spinach
  • 2.5 ounces kalamata olives sliced (15 large olives)
  • 1 1/4 cups chicken broth

Optional Toppings:

  • lemon slices
  • feta
  • Tzatziki Sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and arrange 5 oven safe containers on a cookie sheet.
  • Dice up chicken and add the olive oil and Greek seasoning. Mix well and set aside.
  • In a microwave safe bowl heat up the spinach. I like to roughly chop the spinach and add about 1 tablespoon of water. Microwave uncovered 1-2 minutes until wilted.
  • To each bowl add 3 tablespoons of orzo, 2 tablespoons diced tomatoes, 1/5 of the olives, 1/5 of the spinach, and 1/4 cup of chicken broth.
  • Top each bowl with 5 ounces of chicken and some lemon slices(optional).
  • Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
  • Let cool before covering with lids and placing in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave for 2-3 minutes.
  • Let the casseroles sit for 5-10 minutes before consuming to allow juices to absorb into the orzo. The juices will absorb in the fridge and should reheat perfectly.
  • Serve with feta or tzatziki sauce.
