Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 6 tablespoons dry white wine
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried basil

• 1/4 cup finely grated parmesan cheese + 2 tablespoons
• 1 cup uncooked whole wheat orzo

Directions

1. The night before, season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Whisk together 3 tablespoons olive oil, cheese, basil, parsley, garlic and 3 tablespoons of wine in a bowl. Place chicken in a large ziplock bag, then pour marinade over top and coat chicken. Keep in the fridge overnight.

2. The next morning, place chicken in your crockpot with 3 tablespoons of wine. Cook on low for 6-8 hours.

3. Prepare whole wheat orzo according to directions. Once cooked, combine with remaining olive oil, parmesan and salt and pepper if desired. Cut chicken into pieces/chunks, and toss together with orzo. Add in vegetables of your choice! Top with additional parm.

4. This is a great meal to make ahead of time and store in the fridge for easy lunches and dinners.
