Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat the 2 tbsp olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the 1 diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in the 2 minced garlic cloves and the 1 cup rice. Cook for 1 minute until the rice is lightly toasted and fragrant.

  3. Step 3

    Add the drained chickpeas and 2 cups vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Fluff with a fork and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.
