Servings: 2
Extra-virgin Olive Oil
1 1/2 Large Shallots, diced, about 1 cup
4 Garlic Cloves, minced
Salt and Pepper
1/4 Cup Basmati Rice
1 Pound Ripe Tomatoes, diced
1/4 Cup White Wine
1/4 Teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes, or thinly sliced chili

2 Ounces Greek Feta Cheese
1/2 Teaspoon Dried Oregano
1 Tablespoon Roughly Chopped Mint

- Put 4 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 to 8 minutes.
- Add rice to skillet to brown slightly. Lower heat as necessary to keep mixture from browning.

- Remove from oven and let rest for 5 mins. Sprinkle with mint and serve.
