Can't push refrigerator back due to water shut-off valve

We recently remodeled our kitchen. We bought a counter-depth refrigerator that is sticking out about 2-inches from our cabinets (I'm referring to the sides of the refrigerator not the doors). As I believe is the norm in newer construction homes, the water shut off valve behind the refrigerator for the ice maker/water sticks straight out. With the water line from our refrigerator connected to it, it prevents the refrigerator from being pushed back further than it could.


Is there a relatively easy fix to allow our refrigerator to be pushed back further? What do most people do that have counter-depth refrigerators and want it flush with their cabinets?
