Instructions

1
Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
2
In a large pan over medium heat, add olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
3
Add the diced chicken to the pan and cook until it's completely cooked through.
4
Add the drained sun-dried tomatoes, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together to combine.
5
Pour in the orzo pasta and chicken broth. Stir well.
6
Cover the pan and let it cook on medium heat for 12 minutes, or until the orzo is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
7
Stir in the almond milk and grated Parmesan cheese until a creamy sauce forms.
8
Add the fresh spinach and stir for about one minute until it has wilted down.
9
Remove the pan from the heat and serve immediately.
