Been making this for many years. It comes from an old Ellie Krieger cookbook, only she uses dill instead of cilantro. I also use chicken - cook it first, then remove it. Simmer the vegetables, andd the chicken back in. Sprinkle with the feta, and bake it in the oven to get the feta nice and melty.
Super easy and yummy! I also added crushed red pepper and basil to the mix for extra flavor! My family loved it!
My three favorite thing,ORZO SHRIMP and FETA soo good!

Delicious and easy to make
I can't get the stars to work right, they seem to limit me to only 3 stars, but I thought that this recipe was better than that. I followed the recipe exactly and my son, who is 39, really liked it a lot.
Didn't add the cikantro and liked it, but it seemed to need something. May try adding basil if I make it again.

A little on the bland side...next time we will add a touch of old bay.
I followed the recipe exactly but this was way too bland.
