Kittencal's Greek Lemony Rice With Feta image

Make this only if you are a lover of Greek food, this is a full flavored rice with intense flavor and not for those with a plain palette! --- since not everyone has a taste for olives I have left them as optional, I most always add them in -- after making this a few times you will most likely want to adjust some of the ingredients to suit your taste, or you may not, the amounts listed are close to what I use when I make this rice --- this is very good!

This recipe was a little too time-consuming for me. I think I'll look for a simpler recipe next time.

This dish was a little too sour for my taste. I think I'll use less lemon juice next time.
