Cheesy grilled chicken with tomato orzo

1
Set a saucepan with the olive oil over a medium heat. Cook the onion for 3-4 minutes then add the zucchini and aubergine. Cook for 4 minutes more, add the garlic for 1 minute then stir in the tomato paste.

Pour in half the jar of pasta sauce and all of the vegetable stock. Bring to the boil, add the orzo, stir really well then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring constantly, until the orzo is cooked and the sauce has thickened – about 12-15 minutes. Stir in the parmesan and cheddar to serve.

While the orzo cooks, preheat the oven and put the chicken breasts on a baking tray. Smother with the remaining pasta sauce and bake for 10 minutes. Arrange two slices of mozzarella on top of the chicken the bake for 5 minutes more until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melty.
