Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Place chicken breasts in a slow cooker; season generously with salt and pepper. Top with diced tomatoes and pour chicken broth around the chicken. Cook on High for 2 hours or on Low for 4 hours. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step
40 mins

Remove chicken from the slow cooker and shred or cut into 1-inch pieces. Return the chicken to the slow cooker. Stir in the orzo pasta and Boursin cheese, ensuring the cheese melts into the sauce. Cook on High until the pasta is tender and the liquid has been mostly absorbed, about 35 to 40 minutes. (Prep time: 40 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Stir in baby spinach until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. If desired, stir in a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for brightness. Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, flavorful goodness. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, consider browning the chicken breasts in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir into the slow cooker during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
Serve with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or basil for added freshness.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
