Cooking Steps

Cook the Orzo
1
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the orzo
  • 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 pop back in the pot.
  • Drizzle with oil and add the sun dried tomato paste. Mix well and season to taste with salt and pepper.

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Cook the Chicken
2
  • Place your hand flat on top of the chicken breast and slice through to make two thin steaks. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil
  • When hot, add the chicken. Season with half a sachet of Italian herbs (per 2P), salt and pepper.
  • Cook through, 3-6 mins each side.

TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging used to keep it fresh.

Assemble the Salad
3
  • Meanwhile, chop the tomato into 2cm cubes.
  • Just before serving, toss the salad leaves with mayo and a drizzle of oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Stir the cheese and tomatoes through the orzo.
Dish Up
4
  • Divide the sun dried tomato orzo between plates.
  • Serve the chicken steaks and tossed salad alongside.
