Greek-Style Spinach & Feta Rice

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Prep the ingredients

   Rinse the white rice, drain and rinse the chickpea, chop the spinach and dill, dice the onion, mince the garlic, juice the lemon, and crumble the feta cheese.
2. 2

   Soften onion and garlic

   Warm the olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic with 1/2 tsp salt and a few grinds of black pepper; stir often.

   5 Min.
3. 3

   Toast the rice

   Add the white rice to the skillet and stir for a minute so the grains are coated with oil and begin to look translucent at the edges.

   2 Min.
4. 4

   Cook the rice

   Pour in the vegetable broth and stir in the chickpea. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, cover, reduce to low, and cook without lifting the lid.

   18 Min.

   Tipp: Keep the heat low after covering; a hard boil can scorch the bottom before the rice is done.

5. 5

   Fold in spinach

   Stir the spinach into the skillet over low heat, cover again, and cook.

   3 Min.
