I made this dish with Greek chicken and it was amazing! ❤. Your recipes are always a hit. 🎉🎉

[@FinezzaStreetFood]

did you get the chicken from greece ????

[@Pammellam]

I love love your Greek recipes. I don’t know anything about Greek cooking but I have loved learning about Greek cooking from you. I love Kalamata olives and I love sheep‘s milk feta so I know I’m going to love this!

[@sinepari9160]

The Greeks do it right

[@maylien]

I just made this tonight. So great and easy! I just happened to have all the ingredients. But I halved the recipe and that was enough for 4 servings. I think next time I may add a pinch of red pepper flakes and some oregano just for fun.

[@antoniodelrey164]

You have done it again Dimitra! Thanks again for a great, simple and fast recipe.

[@DimitrasDishes]

My pleasure!

[@pamplant3610]

This looks soooooo good. Got to make it soon!

[@d.l.sosnik2135]

I have everything I need to make this, and I'm going to add a package of cubed and smoked salmon that I bought from Costco. The box of salmon came with 4 individual packages of the cubed fish, and I think one of those will be the perfect amount to add to this recipe. Thanx so much for this. Looks so delicious ! Wish me luck !

[@annemondelci9268]

Looks really delicious !!

[@jamesgifford5240]

Amazing, I have to make this tonight!! Thank you so much!!!

[@LindaC616]

Oh my! Here I am with whole grain orzo, feta, and black and green olives in the house!

[@LindaC616]

Would have to get an onion or sub a yellow one and the red peppers. I even have capers, and I don't like capers!

[@DimitrasDishes]

@@LindaC616 Use the yellow onion :) Enjoy this!! xoxo

[@LindaC616]

I love your recipes....my best friend is Greek so I'm familiar with the food. I just wish you would speak slowly in the beginning far too fast plus not everyone speaks Greek. Thank you for introducing me to different Greek foods I haven't had. ❤️

[@Dax893]

I love orzo, Thanks to Dimitra, and I'm always looking for new recipes. This one is pretty fancy, but it's next on the list.

[@usafret7722]

Tried it and came out great. Wife ate it for lunch all week.

[@BigGen222]

For any Australians out there, this pasta is more commonly known as risoni here. Great recipe.

[@jim6827]

Looks great 👍

[@conn720able]

I'm going to make this for dinner tonight. I don't have all the ingredients, but I will make do with whatever I have. Thank you, Dimitra!

[@DimitrasDishes]

Hope you enjoy it!!

[@conn720able]

I didn't have peas, roasted red peppers, and feta cheese. Instead, I used tomatoes and dehydrated chanterelle mushrooms along with the other ingredientsthat you used. I had this with an egg and it was a quick and delicious meal. Once again, thank you!

[@nancyjerniganstewart]

Thanks for all the fast meals! School's back in session, so every teacher I know will love this!

[@DimitrasDishes]

You are so welcome! Yes, this one is perfect for those busy weeknights. Enjoy!!

[@makisp.1428]

Great recipe and thank you!

[@DimitrasDishes]

Glad you liked it!

[@Hollis_has_questions]

I love this recipe! However, right now I'm on a mint roll, so ... along with dried Greek oregano I will add dried mint, too. ETA (8 months later): Maybe instead of salt I’ll add 2 or 3 rinsed chopped anchovies to the oil and let them sort of dissolve before I add the onions. Why? Because anchovies add so much umami, because I love them, and because this orzo dish is so much like the pasta puttanesca of Italian fame that it calls for the little fishes that sleep in every pantry worth its salt! If I weren’t using a sheep’s milk feta, it might still need some salt, but IMO the salt in a good sheep’s milk feta should more than compensate when combined with the briny olives, capers, and anchovies! I love to add fresh parsley; just give it a good chop and sprinkle on top to serve 😊

[@helenmalandrakis9746]

Sound yummy. I love orzo.

[@salishseaquest7952]

Looks wonderful, can hardly wait to try. Questions -- How would this be the next day -- cold? Would the orzo continue to absorb the stock? Could it be re-heated on the stove-top?

[@MrBarney2107]

It's a matter of taste, but I like eating pasta cold, so it works for me! Yes, the orzo continues to absorb the stock. You can reheat it but the texture won't be as good.

[@sharonlauria7796]

I absolutely love you. Not only are you beautiful but I think I have made all your awesome dishes. I’m Italian but you turned me Greek with all these delicious meals.😂😂😂

[@sweetsuccesstrading5097]

Found the Orzo on Amazon 😊

Mean that we are vegetarians. Definitely will be trying this recipe. Looks delicious.😊

[@timcholodniuk8861]

Hello again Dimitra, Thank you once again for another amazingly delicious recipe. Definitely making this tomorrow🤤 I do have a question if you don’t mind? I watch a lot of vlogs by chefs like yourself and whenever “roasted red peppers” are used in a recipe, it’s never mentioned if the roasted red peppers are the more typical jarred ones with vinegar and oil or just jarred in oil, preferably olive oil? The ones that are in only oil are pretty much impossible to find because of shelf life and not really preserved with vinegar. What type are yours you use if you don’t mind me asking…just oil or oil vinegar? Thank you in advance my dear and pleeaase keep your awesome cooking/baking recipe/vlogs coming…🙏🏻😊 Have a wonderful day Dimitra☀️

[@DimitrasDishes]

I always use the peppers that are in a vinegar solution. I have to restock my pantry!! haha! Enjoy this recipe :)

[@timcholodniuk8861]

Thank you thank you my dear…that’s a huge help😊 Thank you for the quick reply too☀️ you’re awesome!

[@thomasdsouza6664]

Yummy can this be made with basmati rice,vthanks

[@DimitrasDishes]

Yes, that would be delicious :)
