ORZO PUTTANESCA WITH CHICKEN
This recipe spins a classic puttanesca sauce of tomatoes, garlic, olives, and capers into a single-skillet meal by cooking chicken breasts in the pan to start, then making the sauce and cooking the orzo pasta together in the same pan. Convenience is not the only benefit-the method adds flavor, too, as the fond (the brown bits left in the pan) from the chicken flavors the sauce and the pasta both absorbs and thickens it. Served sprinkled with Parmesan and fresh basil, it gives new life to an old favorite.

Steps:
- Season the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon each of the salt and black pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add two pieces of the chicken to the skillet, then lower the heat to medium and cook until they are browned and nearly cooked through, 3 minutes per side, then transfer them to a plate. Repeat with another tablespoon of the oil and the remaining chicken, transferring it to the plate.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet and lower the heat to medium. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 for seconds more. Add the tomatoes, olives, capers, oregano, red pepper flakes, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt and cook until the mixture thickens slightly, 4 minutes.
- Add 2 1/4 cups of water to the pan and bring to a boil, then stir in the orzo. Return to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, stirring frequently, until the orzo is nearly cooked, 10 minutes. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan, nestling it into the orzo mixture. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the orzo is cooked al dente and the chicken is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more.
- Serve the orzo topped with the chicken, a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, and fresh basil leaves.
- The chicken and orzo will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

GARLIC CHICKEN WITH ORZO NOODLES
This is a simple recipe with a spicy kick for garlic lovers. It is my combination of a much loved linguine and clam sauce dish and a recent introduction to orzo pasta. I have several variations for this recipe. Add more red pepper for extra spice. Substitute the chicken for clams or shrimp. Substitute the spinach leaves for diced tomatoes. I've also added spices such as basil, rosemary and oregano bringing a distinct Italian flavor to the dish.

CHICKEN PUTTANESCA
Classic Italian puttanesca sauce is typically served over pasta, but it is paired with chicken in this comforting weeknight dish. Chicken thighs are browned, then set aside while you assemble a simple but bold tomato sauce made with briny capers and olives, salty anchovies and spicy red-pepper flakes. Serve the chicken over rice, orzo or egg noodles, with a hunk of bread to round out the meal.

Steps:
- Pat chicken thighs dry and season well with salt and pepper. In a deep-sided 12-inch skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. When the oil shimmers, add the chicken thighs, skin-side down, and cook undisturbed until nicely browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and brown the other side of the chicken thighs, 4 to 5 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Pour off and discard all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan and return the pan to medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic, anchovies and red-pepper flakes, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is pale golden and the anchovies have dissolved, about 2 minutes.
- Add the tomato paste and stir until dissolved, then stir in the tomatoes and their juices, scraping up any brown bits that have collected at the bottom of the pan. Stir in the olives and capers, then add the chicken back to the skillet along with any juices that have accumulated. Simmer until the flavors meld and the chicken cooks through, 15 to 20 minutes, adding a tablespoon or so of water if the sauce begins to look dry.
- Taste and adjust seasonings accordingly. Scatter with parsley and oregano, if using. Divide chicken among plates or bowls, spooning additional sauce over top.
CHICKEN PUTTANESCA
This lovely, gutsy sauce goes wonderful with chicken that has been sauteed first, then gently simmered in the sauce to absorb all the flavours. No need to miss out on the pasta either, as green tagliatelle is the perfect accompaniment! Recipe courtesy of The Delia Collection: Chicken. We love this!
