A delightful and easy-to-make dish combining chickpeas and rice with aromatic spices.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Using medium heat prevents the oil from burning and maintains its flavor.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until softened and fragrant.
Stir frequently to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
Stir in the cooked brown rice and chickpeas, mixing well to combine.
Ensure the rice and chickpeas are evenly coated with the oil and aromatics.
Add the water, parsley, salt, basil, marjoram, cumin, turmeric, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine.
Adjust the seasoning to taste before simmering.
Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Check occasionally to ensure the mixture doesn't dry out; add a splash of water if needed.
Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
This resting time enhances the dish's flavor profile.
Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
Serving with a side of yogurt or a fresh salad complements the dish beautifully.
