Mixing Marinara with Alfredo was new for me, and let me tell you -- I'm so glad I tried it.  Talk about a great combination of flavors!  I guess I shouldn't have been too surprised, they are both "to-die-for" sauces.  Take that combination, and add in the delight of browned chicken, creamy orzo and peas, and you've got yourself one decadent dinner. 

Baked Chicken and Marinara over Alfredo Orzo with Peas
Total Time: 30-35 minutes
Prep: 5 minutes
Cook: 25-30 minutes

What you'll need
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 
garlic salt and pepper
1 tablespoon butter
2-3 slices fresh mozzarella cheese
1 cup marinara sauce 
1/2 cup uncooked orzo
1/2 - 1 cup light alfredo sauce  
1/2 cup frozen or canned peas
fresh basil 

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 
2. Generously season chicken breasts with garlic salt and pepper. 
3. Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat.  Turn heat up to high, add in chicken breasts.  Brown chicken, about 2 minutes per side.
4. In a small baking dish, add a thin layer of marinara sauce to help prevent chicken from sticking.
5. Place browned chicken breasts over the marinara sauce.  Pour remaining marinara over the top of the chicken breasts.  Top with mozzarella cheese slices.  Lightly season with salt and pepper. 

6. Bake in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until cheese is melted and chicken is cooked through. 
7. Meanwhile, cook orzo according to package directions.
8. Add Alfredo sauce to the saucepan.  Mix well until orzo is evenly coated in sauce. 
9. Stir in peas.  Continue to cook on low until peas are warm, about 5 minutes. 
10. Spoon orzo into a bowl.  Top with chicken breast and garnish with fresh basil.  Serve and enjoy!
