This one-dish meal is a celebration of Mediterranean flavors. Juicy chicken thighs are simmered in stock that's soaked up by a light (but filling) orzo pasta. Our favorite part: when heated, the crumbled feta softens into pockets of salty, creamy goodness. Serve it with a garnish of mint for a fresh summer meal.

Certain foods cook best in the microwave at lower power levels.

Different microwaves have different settings. See your microwave manual (or look it up online) to learn how to change your microwave’s power level.
For many microwaves: enter the cook time, press the “Power” (or “Power Level”) button, and select a number between 1-10. Other microwaves may require selecting the Power Level first, and then entering the cook time.
Microwaves list power levels in different ways. Here’s a guide to help you adjust:
PL 10 = 100% = High (default)
PL 9 = 90% = High
PL 8 = 80% = Med-High
PL 7 = 70% = Med-High
PL 6 = 60% = Medium
PL 5 = 50% = Medium
PL 4 = 40% = Med-Low
PL 3 = 30% = Med-Low
PL 2 = 20% = Low
PL 1 = 10% = Low
You will know if the power level has been successfully changed if you hear periodic changes in the microwave’s tone after it begins cooking.
- Stir well to incorporate. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh mint or parsley and extra feta if desired.
Suggestions
- Add chopped black olives to the orzo pasta while it cooks for a Mediterranean twist.
- For some spice, sprinkle chili flakes.
- Add 1 tablespoon of store-bought breast or tenders drumsticks if thighs are unavailable.
Recipe Notes
- When reheating leftovers, sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of water into the dish to create steam and slightly loosen the sauce.
- Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
