Rather than cook the grains on the stove, Ree’s tip is to use microwavable pre-cooked grains, to get this dish on the table in a matter of minutes.

Reviews
Super good, especially with Ree’s Italian lettuce wraps. I halved the recipe, as I thought my husband wouldn’t like it, but surprise! He said it was the best supper ever! I used herbs from my garden. Also it was very easy and fast to put together.
Very tasty!
This was great. I added shrimp, cherry tomatoes, cappers, feta and removed the olives.
