Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash the fillets and place them side by side in a baking dish.
- 2
Wash the tomatoes and then give them a light "massage" under warm running water. This softens the skin, making it easier to peel with a knife. Then grate them and pour the juice over the fillets.
- 3
Sprinkle the orzo around the fish to fill the gaps in the baking dish and add a little water. The juicier the tomatoes, the less water you'll need to add. Instead of water, you can add vegetable broth, but I find the fresh tomato and fish juices are enough.
- 4
Add some olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Finally, crumble the feta over the dish with your fingers.
- 5
Cover well with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 20 minutes.

Creamy Parmesan Orzo Creamy Parmesan Orzo
This makes such a yummy, creamy side dish. Or you could add some protein and veggies into it and make it a main meal. The orzo cooks very quickly, making this a very fast side item, perfect for busy weeknights...though it is a little on the decadent side, so maybe not as an everyday thing. To make it a slightly healthier side, stir in some chopped spinach at the end. Recipe adapted from : Jocooks.com Christina -
