Instructions

1 Start by bringing a generously salted pot of water to a rolling boil. Cook the
orzo pasta following the package’s instructions until it reaches a slightly past
al dente texture. Once cooked, drain the orzo and mix it with a touch of olive
oil to prevent clumping. Spread it out on a baking sheet to cool.
2 Next, prepare the Greek Salad Dressing and incorporate the red wine vinegar,
fresh lemon juice, oregano, and sea salt into the mix.
3 In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the cooled orzo, Persian cucumbers, cherry
tomatoes, cooked chickpeas, feta cubes, sliced red onion, and Kalamata olives.
Pour the dressing over the salad, add half of the herbs, and season with freshly
ground black pepper. Toss everything together until evenly coated. Garnish with
the remaining herbs and serve immediately.
