Ingredients
  

  • 2 –3 chicken breasts diced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons Kinder’s Cowboy Butter Seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup dry orzo pasta
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup fresh spinach chopped

Instructions
 

Add the chicken

  • Place the diced chicken breasts into the bottom of your slow cooker.

Season the chicken

  • Add minced garlic, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, Kinder’s Cowboy Butter Seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Stir until the chicken is evenly coated in the seasonings.

Add the broth

  • Pour in the chicken broth and give everything another quick stir.

Slow cook: Cover and cook on:

  • HIGH: 4–6 hours or LOW: 6–8 hours

Cook until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.

    Add the orzo and creamy ingredients

    • About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the dry orzo, heavy whipping cream, and grated Parmesan cheese.
    • Cover and continue cooking until the orzo is tender. Stir once or twice during this time to prevent the orzo from sticking together or to the bottom.

    Serve
