In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season 500 g of chicken breast with salt and black pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and sear for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add 3 cloves of minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add 400 g of canned diced tomatoes and 1 teaspoon of dried oregano. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Stir in 200 ml of cream and return the seared chicken to the skillet. Allow the chicken to simmer in the sauce for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cook 200 g of orzo according to package instructions. Drain and add the orzo to the skillet, mixing everything together. Serve hot, garnished with fresh basil.
