Yes. You may need to shorten the cook time just a bit.

I haven’t tried it, but I think that will probably work well. You might want to add a little extra broth since it will be soaked up by the orzo as it cooks.

Thank you

This one is a winner. I should have pushed the sun dried tomatoes under the liquid but otherwise turned out yummy!!!

UK family absolutely loved this. Converted cup measurements via Google and used cornflour and double cream. Delicious. Thank you for such a great recipe.

Made this for dinner tonight and it was fantastic. I left out the sundried tomatoes because neither me or my husband like them and I used onions as I had no shallots.

I had to use bone in thighs because thats what the supermarket gave me instead of boneless but it was just a few minutes at the end picking out the bones and cartilage.

I found a jar of Tuscan seasoning in the back of my spice cupboard that I also used so that probably changed the flavour slightly but even without that it would be incredible.

I took the chicken out at the end and added the spinach and cream/cornstarch and while it was thickening and the spinach was wilting I shredded up the chicken. Then put it back in and mixed everything together and served over white rice.

Even my husband, who complains that *everything* is bland, ate it without salt and pepper and loved it, and even requested that I make again in the near future so that’s a definite win lol.

I served alongside Mediterranean vegetables and homemade garlic bread.

This recipe will be going to the top of my favorite slow cooker meals. So easy and delicious.

Outstanding, “Five Star” recipe! Have now made this three times in past two months (has become one of my wife’s favorites). We love that your recipes are laid-out & organized extremely well while still managing to be fairly concise & to the point … you really outline the order of things and oh yeah, the recipes here are terrific!

With that, regarding all the substitution questions others have posted. I say stop worrying, follow the recipe instructions as best you can, substitute things if you want to or have to, and trust your cooking instincts because this is a solid recipe to work with.

Variation: Started the recipe in the skillet as noted. Then for the crock pot cooking, used my multi-cooker on slow cooker setting, high for 1.5 hours then low for 2 hours. Layered chunks of organic red potatoes (scrubbed but NOT peeled, about 2.5+ lbs) over the chicken in those last two hours while adding 4 cups (not just one cup) of warmed chicken broth knowing that the potatoes would absorb about half of it. Also nearly tripled the cream (with 3x corn starch) plus added 4 Tbs butter when adding the broth. Lastly, added a whole bin of “super greens” (org. spinach, baby kale, chard, & arugula greens) in the last 15 minutes, covered, to steam down the greens. To serve, I poured the whole cooker pot into a big pasta bowl and gently tossed it all together, topped with Romano & Parmesan cheese & generous grinds of pepper. Served up right away. Turned out super delicious each time.

Fresh tomatoes won’t add as much flavor as sun dried tomatoes, but you might try adding chopped fresh tomatoes near the end of the cook time.

hi I was making these for dinner and I realized I boiled the sauce over high heat instead of medium. Is that going to cause a problem?

I haven’t tried using frozen spinach, but I think it will work ok. I would squeeze out any excess moisture and add it at the same point as you would add fresh spinach.
