This Greek Baked Orzo is a flavorful and comforting dish that combines orzo pasta, kale, bell peppers, and fire-roasted tomatoes baked to perfection. With the choice of chicken or chickpeas and optional feta and dill toppings, it's a versatile and delicious meal that's perfect for any occasion.

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.
