Wednesday, September 9, 2009


Ingredients:

Salt
1/2 pound orzo
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small to medium zucchini, diced
1/2 red onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (15-ounce) can chick peas, drained
1/2 cup parsley leaves, chopped
1/4 cup mint leaves, finely chopped
1/2 cup feta or goat cheese, crumbled


Directions:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add orzo and cook to al dente.
Heat extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet, add zucchini, onions and garlic, season with salt and pepper and cook 6 to 7 minutes until tender, add chick peas and heat through. Toss with herbs, orzo and cheese, adjust salt and pepper and serve.
This dish had wonderful flavor. I used a little extra zucchini and feta cheese.
