Ingredients
1 cup orzo pasta
1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cubed
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon Greek seasoning, or to taste
2 cups fresh spinach
1 cucumber, cubed

1 (15 ounce) can large black olives, drained

Instructions
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook orzo in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 10 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chicken, garlic, and Greek seasoning until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 10 minutes.
