Vegetarian Weeknight Dinner: Chickpea Rice Skillet

Chickpea Rice Skillet is a one-pan vegetarian dinner made with rice, chickpeas, tomatoes, spinach, and feta. It is hearty, affordable, gluten-free when made with certified broth, and practical for busy weeknights because the rice cooks directly in the skillet.

Tutor's tips

  • Rinse the rice well before cooking to remove excess surface starch and prevent a gummy skillet.
  • Use a tight-fitting lid. If your skillet lid leaks steam, place a sheet of foil under the lid before simmering.
  • For extra vegetables, stir in 1 cup frozen peas or chopped zucchini with the chickpeas and rice.
