# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 - 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
02 - 2 tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning
03 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
04 - 2 cups broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
05 - 1 cup dry orzo pasta
06 - 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
07 - 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
08 - 1 teaspoon lemon zest
09 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
10 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
→ Optional Garnish
11 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
12 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
# How to make it:
01 - Pat the chicken breasts dry, then slice each into strips about 1/2 inch thick. Toss with lemon pepper seasoning to coat evenly.
02 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add seasoned chicken strips in a single layer and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Transfer chicken to a plate.
03 - Add broccoli florets to the same skillet and sauté for 2 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir in orzo and toast for 1 minute.
04 - Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the orzo is tender and most liquid is absorbed.
05 - Return chicken to the skillet. Add lemon juice and lemon zest, then gently fold to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
06 - Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and chopped parsley if desired. Serve hot.
