We’re bringing our grilled chicken orzo salad to the table! It’s a wonderful lunch or dinner packed full of fresh herbs and preserved lemon. Yum!
Cooking orzo in chicken stock adds heaps of flavour.
For the Chicken: Place diced preserved lemon, olive oil, garlic and chicken thigh fillets in a bowl. Add lashings of salt and pepper then massage into chicken. Cover the bowl with cling film then pop in the fridge to marinate for at least 2 hours.
Heat BBQ or grill on high. Drizzle with oil then place chicken skin side down on grill, turning then flipping, until cooked through, about 10 mins.
For the orzo “risotto”: In a heavy based saucepan, fry onion in olive oil. Once brown, add the orzo and stock and bring to a boil. Cook for roughly 10 mins, until the orzo is al dente and liquid is absorbed.
