1. To make the dressing, combine all ingredients in a glass jar.2. Toss the chicken with 1/3 cup dressing. Set your grill, grill pan, or skillet to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken until cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Thinly slice it.3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Boil the orzo to al dente. Drain. Add the orzo back to the hot pot and toss with the dressing. Add the tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and pepperoncini. Toss, toss, toss! 4. Divide the arugula between bowls. Add the orzo, then chicken.

Made this for dinner tonight, and it was so delicious!  I had my husband grill the chicken last night while he was grilling a steak.  I made the orzo salad and garlic tahini this morning.  All I had to do was assemble at dinner time!  This is a perfect summertime dinner.

The first HBH recipes I haven’t loved, but it was probably my issue.  I loved the healthiness of the dish, but found the herb vinaigrette to be without much flavor, and the flavor it did have was heavy on the dill (I used 1/3 fresh basil, dill and oregano).  This was my first time using Tahini and I don’t think I am much of a fan.  Seemed bitter to me, even with all the other ingredients.  Now I know.

Fantastic dish!
Loved the freshness of the ingredients and the dressing with the combination of the garlic tahini added so much flavour. I'm not a big fan of tahini typically because I find it bitter but I definitely recommend making it, it just adds another depth of added flavor!

Thanks for another great recipe!

Another winning recipe, so delicious, healthy and interesting! I halved the orzo but left everything else the same because we love lots of sauce and fillings. It probably only made 3 servings due to this and we ate a lot, but it was delectable.

Easy and quick to make 
Loved the fresh herbs 
We grilled the chicken in the bbq 
And we aren’t olive fans so left the em out / definitely add the herbs to finish and chili flakes if you don’t use the olives …
Lovely light and fresh summer meal!

This was so good and not difficult at all. Fresh and healthy with no heavy sauces. Loved!

This recipe was absolutely delicious! Perfect for summer. The only change I would make is to double the chicken, my crew likes a lot of protein. This will go into my rotation, thank you Tiegan!

Another Tieghan/HBH win!  So good! 

I used fresh herbs out of my garden for the dressing (dill, Greek oregano, basil, and a little rosemary). 

The only change I will do different next time is marinate the chicken in the partial dressing for an hour or so instead of just tossing. 

This will be on my summer rotation for sure!
