Ok, I made up the name but the dish is from my boyfriend who could eat it every day if he wants to. This dish is named so because it's a party of different flavors in your mouth. I like this dish with any type of lemon chicken.
Ingredients:
1 cup parboiled rice
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3 cups chicken stock or 3 cups water
4 plum tomatoes, diced
1 peeled cucumber, diced
1/2 lemon, juice of
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon dry oregano
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Saute the onion in olive oil until translucent.
2. Add rice and stir until uniform. Stir rice occasionally for about 2 minutes or until rice forms a golden color. Do not leave, rice may burn!
3. Add in 3 cups water (or stock) or amount of water indicated on package. Boil for 20 minutes or according to package instructions.
4. Combine tomatoes, cucumber, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, salt and pepper together in a separate bowl. Taste and make adjustments as needed.
5. Serve tomato and cucumber salad on top of the rice.
