2. Heat 2 tsp. of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook on both sides for about 4 to 5 minutes until no longer pink. Remove the chicken from the skillet.
3. Drain orzo and keep warm.
4. Lower the heat to medium and add remaining oil. Saute the peppers for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and sautè for 1 minute more. Add the lemon juice and cook for 1 minute. Add back the chicken breasts to the skillet. Top with feta cheese, cover, and cook 1 minute until cheese slightly melts. Serve over cooked orzo.
