Instructions

Drain and season the chickpeas, then sear them over medium-high heat until well browned, about 7 minutes.

Add the red onion, tomatoes and cucumber, cooking until softened, about 8 minutes.

Stir in the lemon juice, tzatziki and olive oil for 3 minutes.

Cook the rice pilaf separately and fluff with a fork.

Let everything simmer for about 10 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the rice pilaf, garnished with fresh herbs.
