Step 1

Boil the orzo. Orzo usually takes around 7 to 8 minutes to boil: cook it according to the package instructions, but start tasting for al dente a few minutes before the package specifies. Al dente means tender but with an inner firmness.

Step 2

Season the chickpeas. To add big flavor to the chickpeas, toss them in a bowl with lemon juice, lemon zest and salt and let them sit while preparing the salad.

Step 3

Chop the vegetables. Chop up the cucumber, roasted red pepper, red onion, and herbs.

Step 4

Mix it all together. Then mix together all the veggies and herbs with olive oil, white wine vinegar, feta cheese, and Kalamata olives.
