Start by rinsing your jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium pot, combine the rice and chicken broth. Bring to a vigorous boil, then reduce to a simmer.  Cover and cook for about 15 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Once done, fluff with a fork and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the ground beef. Break it up with a spatula and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.  Season with garlic powder, oregano, dill, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine the spices with the beef.

Once the beef is fully cooked, add the drained chickpeas to the skillet. Mix them together with the beef and let them heat through for about 3 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.

While your beef and chickpeas are cooking, chop the cucumbers and halved grape tomatoes. You can even get the kids involved in washing and slicing!

Now it’s time for the fun part! In each bowl, start with a generous scoop of jasmine rice. Top with the beef and chickpea mixture.  Add your fresh veggies on the side. Then, you can swirl a generous dollop of hummus on top and finish off with crumbled feta, lemon zest, and a sprinkle of parsley and chives. Don't forget those pickled red onions; they add a punch!
