I came up with this recipe in an attempt to replicate the rice I ate at a local Mediterranean restaurant. The server told me the secret to the dish was the chicken broth and chickpeas. It is very flavourful and a great accompaniment to skewered Greek chicken and a fresh salad. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 cup rice (i prefer to use basmati) |
1 1/2 cups good quality chicken broth |
1/4 cup chickpeas |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon all purpose greek seasoning |
1/4 teaspoon cumin |
Directions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a pan and add garlic and rice; cook until rice is a bit brown.
2. add all other ingredients and bring to the boil.
3. reduce heat to medium low; cover and let cook for 20 minutes.
4. Fluff with a fork and serve.
