Step-By-Step Instructions:
Cut chicken into 2-inch pieces. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and spray with olive oil cooking spray. Add chicken and sausage. Brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove from skillet.
Add chicken broth, water, and saffron to the skillet and bring to a boil, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Add onion, zucchini, red bell pepper, poblano chile pepper and orzo. Stir, bring back to a boil and cook 7 minutes. If not using a nonstick pan, stir often to keep orzo from sticking. If pan becomes dry, add more water.
Return meat to skillet for 5 minutes. Liquid should be absorbed. Add salt and pepper. Serve on 2 dinner plates.
