QUICK GREEK SPINACH AND CHICKEN ORZO



Quick Greek Spinach and Chicken Orzo image

This is adapted from a recipe I found in a cooking magazine I get. This is great for brown-bagging because it tastes good at any temperature, and it's really quick to make. If you are salt sensitive, omit the bouillion cubes and olive brine (not essential, but I like the flavor they add).

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 1 1/4 cups/serving, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 ounces orzo pasta
2 chicken bouillon cubes (for the orzo cooking liquid) or 2 vegetable bouillon cubes (for the orzo cooking liquid)
1 oven-roasted deli chicken
3 cups fresh Baby Spinach (regular fresh spinach will work if you can't find baby)
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled (I use the plain kind, but the flavored type works here too)
1 large tomatoes, diced (or substitute halved grape tomatoes, approx. 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup kalamata olive, pitted (reserve a bit of the brine if you use good quality olives)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons reserved olive brine (optional)
1 tablespoon capers (optional)
fresh ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot (needs to be quite large because you will need to have room to mix once you add the bulky spinach) of water to boil with the bouillon cubes. Add orzo and cook according to directions on box (approximately 10 minutes). Drain and return to pot.
  • Stir in all other ingredients and cook over medium heat for about 2 to 3 more minutes to heat everything through.
  • NOTE: If you want to use only the white meat chicken in this dish (which is what I have to do for my family) and your chickens are small, you may want to purchase two rotisserie chickens to guarantee that you'll have enough meat. Reserve the dark meat for another use. Serve warm, at room temp, or cold.
