Follow these easy steps to prepare your Greek Lemon Rice:

1. Rinse the Rice: Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This will remove excess starch and help keep the rice fluffy.
2. Sauté Aromatics: In a medium-sized pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
3. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Combine Rice: Add the rinsed rice to the pot and stir, allowing it to toast slightly in the oil for about 2 minutes.
5. Add Liquid: Pour in the broth, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir once to combine.
6. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the liquid.
7. Fluff and Garnish: Remove the pot from heat and let it stand covered for about 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving, and garnish with fresh parsley or dill and extra lemon slices if desired.

By following these steps, you will create a dish that is not only flavorful but also shows off your culinary skills!
