Recipes:
For the Meatballs:
1 lb ground chicken
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1 egg
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
For the Lemon-Herb Orzo:
1 cup orzo pasta
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions:
In a large bowl, mix the ground chicken, feta, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the meatballs for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
Meanwhile, in a separate pot, cook the orzo with chicken broth according to package instructions until tender. Drain if necessary.
Stir in olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley into the cooked orzo.
Serve the meatballs over the lemon-herb orzo, garnishing with additional feta and parsley if desired.
