Total time: 25 min
Yield: 4
Ingredients: 3/4 c. orzo; 1 bunch spinach; kosher salt; Pepper; 2 tbsp. olive oil; 8 small chicken cutlets; 1 pt. grape tomatoes; 4 small sweet red cherry peppers (such as Peppadew); 2 clove garlic; 1 c. low-sodium chicken broth

Step 1Cook the orzo according to package directions. Drain and toss with the spinach and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.

Step 2Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook 4 cutlets until browned and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side; transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

Step 3Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in the skillet. Cook the remaining cutlets for 2 minutes. Turn the cutlets and scatter the tomatoes, cherry peppers, and garlic in the skillet. Cook until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to the plate.
