How to Make Greek Orzo
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until golden brown (about 5 minutes).
- Pour in 2 cups of chicken broth.
- Bring the broth to a boil.
- Add 1 cup of orzo pasta to the skillet.
- Return to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
- Cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the orzo is almost cooked through, stirring occasionally and adding more broth if needed.
- Stir in 1 cup of broccoli florets and 1/2 cup of your favorite Greek dressing (or lemon vinaigrette).
- Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Continue to cook and stir until the orzo is cooked through and the broccoli is tender-crisp (about 2-3 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese.
- Let the salad rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Adjust seasonings as needed.
