Grilled Chicken and Peaches with Green Beans and Orzo

8 ounces dried orzo (1 1/3 cups)
8 ounces green beans, trimmed (about 2 1/2 cups)
1 pound chicken tenders
2 peaches, cut into wedges
1/4 teaspoon each salt and ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 - 4 ounces herb-flavored feta cheese ( garlic and herb or peppercorn), crumbled
Fresh thyme (optional)

In a large saucepan or Dutch oven cook orzo according to package directions. Add green beans during last 5 minutes of cooking time. Drain; do not rinse.

Meanwhile, lightly brush chicken and peaches with some of the oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill over medium heat for 4 to 6 minutes, until no pink remains in chicken and peaches are tender and grill-marked.

In a large bowl combine orzo, beans, grilled chicken and peaches (chopped, if desired), and feta. Drizzle with remaining olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with thyme, if desired. Serves 4.
