This was so good! I made 1/2 recipe and it was the perfect amount for my husband and me. I used cubed chicken breast instead of thighs. Super easy and very tasty. I will definately make it again.

This was awesome! A quick and delicious dinner that will definitely enter our rotation. I added cherry tomatoes just dropped over the top right before I popped it in the oven, and some torn up basil when it came out of the oven. And since we each only at one chicken thigh, I have two lunches leftover – yay! Thank you.

I usually add cherry tomatoes because I’ve done this with just boursin in place of feta and no chicken and mixed in with other pasta I’ve cooked on the stovetop. Love that this is a one pan dish and includes a protein!

Yum! My 13 year old wanted his allowance increased this summer, and one of his new chores is making dinner once per week. He made this tonight! It was delicious and he was so proud of himself for making such a tasty meal 😊 He used chicken breasts cut into thin tenders. It’s a very rich dish, and with three of us there were at least two lunch portions left over.

Easy peasy and helped with using leftover spinach salad mix, tomatoes and chicken thighs. Quick to throw together and into the oven it went. Liked this variation much better than the viral feta tomato pasta bake.

I follow you on IG and have made several of your recipes but never have rated any of them. Made this for dinner tonight for my family of 7. I used 2.5 lbs of chicken thighs but kept everything else the same. I did have to bake for slightly longer. After baking, and mixing in the boursin I added a fresh basil chiffonade over top of everything and it was such a tasty comforting dish full of herby fresh flavors to go along with the creamy orzo… Suitable for grown ups but easy for my crazy busy life! I can see adding in some cherry tomatoes on top before baking, with the spinach and chicken.
