Hot Greek Salad

It’s a Greek Salad, but warm and filling!

Ingredients

Ingredient Checklist

  • 1 cup orzo pasta

  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cubed

  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed

  • 1 tablespoon Greek seasoning, or to taste

  • 2 cups fresh spinach

  • 1 cucumber, cubed

  • 1 tomato, cubed

  • 1 (15 ounce) can large black olives, drained

  • 2 tablespoons sun-dried tomato vinaigrette

  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

  2. Cook orzo in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 10 minutes.

  3. Drain and keep warm.

  4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chicken, garlic, and Greek seasoning until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 10 minutes.

  6. Serve over orzo; top with feta cheese.
