Ingredients
- 400 g Chicken thigh fillets
- 2 tbsp Plain flour
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 1 Onion diced
- 4 Cloves of garlic chopped
- 500 ml Chicken stock
- 250 ml Double cream
- 250 g Orzo
- 2 tbsp Sun-dried tomato paste

- 60 g Parmesan grated

Instructions
- Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces, then pop it into a bowl and add the flour, salt, pepper, and paprika, then mix it well to coat.
- Heat some cooking oil in a large frying pan over a medium to high heat. Cook the chicken until it’s golden brown all over. Once browned remove it from the pan.

- Get the chicken back into the pan and stir it well. Bring to a simmer, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the orzo is cooked and the sauce is creamy.
- Take it off the heat, stir through the parmesan and basil and taste for seasoning. Enjoy!
