Yummy Rice

Whenever we have tilapia for our main entree, I try to have a side dish that is a little more substantial. Tonight we had a rice dish that I hadn't made in quite some time and I had forgotten how good it is. It looks like a lot of ingredients, but it really is quite easy to make. I cut the recipe in half for just my husband and me.

Rice with Spinach and Feta Cheese

4 - 6 servings

1/4 c. olive oil

1 large onion, chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 1/4 c. long-grain rice

2 c. chicken broth

1/2 c. dry white wine

2 10-ounce packages fresh spinach

1 c. chopped tomatoes

1 c. crumbled feta cheese

Heat oil in large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until onion is tender. Add rice and stir until rice is translucent, about 2 minutes. Add broth and wine and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook until rice is almost tender, about 15 minutes. Mix in spinach. Cover and cook until rice and spinach are tender and all liquid is absorbed, about 8 minutes longer. Mix in tomatoes and cheese.
