INGREDIENTS

  • Base Ingredients

    • 🧈 2 tablespoons butter
    • 🍝 ½ cup orzo pasta
    • 🧅 ½ cup diced onion
    • 🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 🍗 2 cups chicken broth
    • 🍚 ½ cup white rice
    • 1 cup chopped spinach
    • ½ cup chopped Bulgarian feta cheese

STEPS

1

Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat; cook and stir orzo in melted butter until golden brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.

2

Add broth and rice to orzo-onion mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 20 to 25 minutes.

3

Remove from heat and stir in spinach and feta. Cover and let stand until spinach is wilted and feta is melted, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.
