Comments: Most kids love bell peppers and pasta. Both are featured in this simple, fresh dish. Use only red bell peppers, or try any combination of red, yellow, orange, and green.
Ingredients:
4 Teaspoons oil, olive divided
4 6-ozs chicken breast, boneless, skinless
0.13 Teaspoon pepper, cayenne
Directions:
Cook orzo according to package directions, omitting salt and fat.

While orzo cooks, heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chicken with salt, black pepper, and red pepper. Add chicken to pan, and cook 4 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken from pan, and keep warm. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and bell peppers to pan; sauté 2 minutes. Add oregano and garlic; sauté 1 minute. Remove from heat, and stir in lemon juice.

Combine orzo and feta, and serve with chicken and bell pepper mixture.

Serving Size: 1 chicken breast half, 1/2 cup orzo mixture, and 1/3 cup bell pepper mixture

for 4 oz orzo (not really enough). Changed to 6 oz
