In a large pot heat olive oil over a medium to high heat. One the olive oil is heated, add the onions and zucchini. Let this cook for 4 minutes. Stir to prevent from sticking.
Next add the chicken and mushrooms. Cook these for 2 minutes or until the mushrooms and reduced their size.
Next add the orzo pasta and then chicken broth. Let the broth come to a boil and then turn the heat to low and let for 10 minutes.
