Rice with Spinach and Feta Cheese Recipe

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/4 cups long-grain white rice
  • 2 cups canned beef broth or low-salt chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 2 10-ounce packages fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 cup chopped seeded tomatoes
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  1. Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté until onion is tender, about 6 minutes. 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. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
