Season chicken with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Sear chicken 3–4 minutes per side until golden. Remove to a plate.
In the same pan, add garlic and orzo. Toast about 30 seconds.
Pour in broth, scraping up browned bits. Bring to a simmer.
Nestle chicken back into the pan. Simmer uncovered 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in cream, lemon zest, lemon juice, and zucchini/asparagus. Cook 3–5 minutes until orzo is tender.
Fold in spinach until wilted. Finish with Parmesan. Adjust salt and pepper.
