3. Cook Chicken: Add the boneless chicken breasts to the pot and pour the chicken broth over the top. Bring to a boil.
4. Simmer: Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
5. Remove Chicken: Carefully take the chicken out of the pot and shred it into smaller pieces using two forks.
6. Add Orzo: Stir in the uncooked orzo pasta and let it cook according to package instructions, usually about 10 minutes.
7. Return Chicken: Add the shredded chicken back to the pot along with the chopped spinach, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Stir to combine.
8. Season: Sprinkle in the dried thyme, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Let it cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
