This is another of my "make it up as you go along" dishes, which turned out pretty tasty.
For 2
Orzo about 120g
Baby spinach
Courgette cut into wedges
Red pepper cut into slices
Fresh thyme
Oregano
Garlic clove
1 tsp oil
2 chicken breasts
1 lemon
Half cook the orzo in boiling water for a couple of minutes. Drain and put into the bottom of a casserole dish. Sprinkle with lemon juice, stock or water (about 1-2 tbsp).
Top with baby spinach, a couple of big handfuls as it wilts down as it cooks. Top with the courgette and peppers.
In a mortar and pestle, grind the garlic, thyme and oregano with the oil. Rub this over the chicken breasts. (You could leave this on for a couple of hours for more flavour). Place on top of the veg and top with a lid.
Cook for approx 20-25 mins until the chicken is cooked through. Check it doesn't dry up during cooking, adding more liquid if required.
Top with a few cubes of feta if you fancy it. Add some olives too if you like them.
