Ingredients

8 oz orzo
¼ cup Garnished Table Extra Virgin Olive Oil, plus more to finish
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 English cucumber, diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ cup crumbled feta
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
Salt and black pepper

Directions

Cook the orzo in well-salted water according to the package. Drain and rinse briefly with cool water so it stops cooking.
While the orzo is still a little warm, toss it with the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Warm pasta drinks in the dressing.
Add the cucumber and tomatoes, then gently fold in the feta and parsley.
Let it sit 10 minutes, or chill until serving. Taste, adjust salt and lemon, and finish with one more drizzle of olive oil.
