Upute

Cook the rice

Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a medium pot over medium heat along with the basmati rice. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, or until evenly coated with oil. Pour in the broth and ½ teaspoon salt, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Once the mixture begins to boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 16-18 minutes, or until the rice is tender and fluffy. Turn off the heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon each of chopped parsley and dill. Mix until just combined.

Cook the turkey

While the rice is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking apart, for 3-4 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon Greek seasoning, another 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Stir to combine and cook for 3-4 more minutes, or until the turkey is no longer pink.

Mix the veggies

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, red wine vinegar, the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice, honey, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 2 teaspoons Greek seasoning. Toss until well mixed.

Serve ground turkey over cooked rice with the tomato cucumber salad, crumbled feta cheese, olives, tzatziki sauce, hummus, and a sprinkle of additional fresh parsley and dill.
