Instructions

1

Boil a large pot of salted water for the orzo. TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle. 

When boiling, add the orzo to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until softened, 10-12 mins. Once cooked, drain in a sieve and run through cold water to cool down the orzo. Return to the pot and drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent from sticking. 

2

Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once the oil is hot, add the chicken, middle-eastern spice mix and season with salt and pepper.

Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

3

Meanwhile, halve the cherry tomatoes. Zest and cut the lemon into quarters.

Add 1 tbsp oil (double for 4p), tahini, yoghurt, paprika and lemon zest. Mix and season to taste with lemon juice, salt and pepper.

4

Mix the drained orzo with cherry tomatoes, spinach and yoghurt-tahini sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Divide the orzo between bowls. Top with the warm chicken.

Serve with lemon quarters on the side for squeezing over.
