Thank you commenters for the helpful adjustment ideas. I used the red pepper flakes, Parmesan and Red Gold garlic onion tomatoes. Subbed fresh broccoli for spinach, added a can of white beans for more fiber and added a teaspoon of chicken bouillon to the broth. It was very flavorful. Even picky hubby was pleased with it.

I cut the chicken into bite-size chunks for our smaller eaters but I think the strips would be better. That way you would really get a sense of the chicken and not having it be hidden in the tomatoes, spinach, and orzo. In addition, I had fresh spinach on hand instead of frozen. I used about 3 cups and that was the right amount, I also cut it finely. I only had regular Mrs. Dash instead of the garlic and I think it worked just fine. I did add the Parmesan cheese but think I might try some Feta next time. I'm also debating on adding some fresh mushrooms next time. What I like about this recipe is it allows the cook to make some changes to suit personal preference. All in all, this was fast, tasty, and healthy!","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2012-08-27","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"CyanScissors"},"reviewBody":"I made this tonight with a few changes because I didn't have everything I needed.After cooking the chicken I deglazed the pan with a little red wine.
