Drain and season the chickpeas, then stir-fry them over medium-high heat until well browned, about 9 minutes.

Add the spinach, kalamata olives and bell peppers, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the feta cheese and olive oil for a final minute.

Cook the orzo separately and drain.

Let the chickpeas simmer for about 18 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.
