Preparation
1
Roast the Chickpeas

  • Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. Boil a large pot of salted water for the orzo.
  • Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve.
  • Pop the chickpeas onto a lined baking tray. Toss with half the Cajun spice, saltpepper and a drizzle of oil.
  • When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until the chickpeas are golden, 15-20 mins. Turn halfway through.

TIP: Kids can help toss the cajun charged chickpeas.

2
Make the Orzo

  • When the water is boiling, add the orzo and bring back to the boil.
  • Cook until al dente, 10-12 mins. 
  • Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pot, off the heat.
  • Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent sticking.

3
Get Prepped

  • Meanwhile, halve the cherry tomatoes.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Trim the courgette and slice into 1cm thick rounds.
  • Halve, peel and slice the onion as thinly as you're able.

4
Pickle the Onion

  • Toss the courgette in the remaining Cajun spice, salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil.
  • Arrange in a single layer on a lined baking tray and roast until golden, 8-10 mins.
  • Meanwhile, pop the sliced onion into a small bowl along with the vinegar and ½ tsp sugar (per 2P).
  • Add a pinch of salt, mix together and set aside.

TIP: Use the same tray for the chickpeas and courgette if there's space for both.

5
Toss the Salad

  • Add the cooked orzo, chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, aioli and half the parsley to a large bowl.
  • Crumble in half the Greek style cheese and toss until everything is coated and evenly distributed.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.

6
Finish and Serve

  • Divide the orzo salad between bowls.
  • Arrange the pickled onion and roasted courgette on top.
  • Finish with a scattering of hazelnuts, remaining Greek style cheese and remaining chopped parsley.

TIP: Kids can help assemble the cajun charged orzo bowl inspired by Electrike
