Total Cooking Time
30 minutes
Ingredients (Serves 2)
150g Orzo
600ml Vegetable stock pot
1 Red pepper (deseeded and halved)
1 handful Black Greek olives (sliced)
225g Halloumi (thickly sliced)
Angus & Oink Big Phat Greek seasoning (link)
1 handful Rocket to serve
Method
- Pre heat the oven to 180 (fan). Put the red pepper onto a baking tray, season with salt & pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile prepare the halloumi, cut into thick slices and coat both sides evenly of the halloumi with the Greek seasoning.
- Add the 600ml vegetable stock pot to a pan with the orzo, bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Continue to simmer for around 8-9 minutes until cooked through. If it gets dry add a little water to the pan.
- Now make a start to grilling the halloumi, I use a grill pan but you can use a frying pan. Add a little olive oil and add the halloumi to the pan on a high heat. Grill on both sides until golden.
- The orzo should be ready now, remove the red pepper from the oven and cut into slices. Add the roasted red pepper and olives to the orzo and mix through.
- Plate the orzo, top with a handful of rocket and the grilled halloumi and enjoy!
