Greek Rice With Feta

Created by KittenCal on December 11, 2011

4 tablespoons olive oil (or use enough to cover the bottom of your saucepan)
1 to 2 teaspoons dried oregano (rubbed between fingers to release the flavor)
1 small onion, chopped
4 large garlic cloves, finely chopped (do not finely mince or the garlic will burn while frying with the onion, garlic lover’s use more!)
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or as desired)
1 cup uncooked long grain white rice (washed over with cold water to remove the starch)

Step 1: In a medium saucepan heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add in oregano, onion, garlic and black pepper; saute until the onions are soft (about 3 minutes). Add in rice and stir for about 3 minutes.
Step 2: Slowly pour in the water, broth and lemon juice; bring to a simmer stirring. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for about 22-25 minutes or until the rice is tender and all liquid is absorbed).
Step 3: Remove from heat mix in the feta cheese and olives. Season with salt and more black pepper if desired. Transfer to a serving bowl/s. Serve with lemon wedges and more olive oil to drizzle on top of the rice at the table if desired.
