Stewy Greek Garbanzos
- 1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 3 Garlic Cloves, Crushed, Minced
- 1/2 Yellow Onion, Chopped
- 15 ounces Can, Garbanzo Beans
- 1/2 15-oz Can, Navy Beans
- 2 cups Low-Sodium, Chicken Broth (or Vegetable Broth)
- 1-6oz Can, Tomato Paste
- 2 Lemons, fresh squeezed juice
- 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano or 1 T fresh, chopped
- 1/4 cup Kalamata Olives, quartered
- Feta Cheese, crumbled (optional garnish)
- 1-2 handfuls Spinach, washed
- Pre-Prep:rnChop onions, garlic, cilantro and olives. Set aside.
- Heat a large small skillet on medium heat. Add olive oil to pan. Heat for a few seconds then add onions and garlic, cooking until onions are slightly translucent (4 minutes).
- Place a heavy saucepan or dutch oven on the stove and add beans, chicken broth, tomato paste, olives, lemon juice, and cilantro . Stir to combine then add garlic and onion saute.
- Cook for approximately 30 minutes, it will thicken up nicely! (This will depend on your stove and the pot you use, mine was going to burn if I cooked it longer then 35 mins.)
- Meanwhile: Cook the grain of your choice. I love whole wheat orzo. Bring water to a boil (based on serving size you're making) add grain and follow cooking time.
- After 25 minutes add the spinach and mix so that it wilts nicely. Take off the stove and serve in a bowl, top with Feta cheese and a fresh squeeze of lemon juice! SERVE and ENJOY!
