Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Eat Your Books

    Can substitute salted anari for halloumi, and Cypriot village pasta or macaroni pasta for Greek village pasta.

    This is pure comfort food! The Swiss Chard gets tender and silky and the earthiness of the greens cuts through the richness of the brothy chicken and orzo. The stirred in grated halloumi, puts it over the top. I made this with boneless, skinless chicken thighs, but I’m sure it would be even better, with crispy-skinned bone in thighs. I did not use dried mint, because I don’t care for it. The dried oregano was perfect. I will definitely make this again.
