Notes

If you want the feta to get soft, just crumble and then put it back in the oven for 5 minutes or so before serving.

I normally use an enameled cast iron pan for this, and I find that the orzo likes to stick to the bottom of the pan. But it should release fine with some gentle pressure from a spatula or wooden spoon and then you’ll be good to go! If it persists, here’s How To Clean A Cast Iron Pan That is Very, Very Far Gone.
