A flavorful and comforting Greek-inspired spinach and rice dish, perfect for any meal.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking to avoid burning.
Add the green onions and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
Stir frequently to prevent the onions from browning too much.
Stir in the spinach and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes.
Add the spinach in batches if necessary, allowing it to wilt before adding more.
Add the rice, dill, water, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
Ensure the rice is evenly distributed and submerged in the liquid.
Cover the pot and simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
Check occasionally to ensure the rice doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.
Serve warm, garnished with lemon wedges.
Squeeze a lemon wedge over the dish for a burst of fresh flavor before eating.
