Instructions

Prep all ingredients: chop eggplant, green peppers and measure out the sumac.

Season the chickpeas with salt and pepper, then saute over medium-high heat until well browned, about 6 minutes.

Add eggplant, green peppers to the pan and cook until softened, 5 minutes.

Stir in sumac, yogurt, mint and cook for another 3 minutes until fragrant.

Meanwhile, prepare the rice pilaf according to package instructions and set aside.

Combine everything in the pan, reduce heat, and let simmer for 11 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt, pepper, or a squeeze of citrus if needed.

Serve hot, over rice pilaf, garnished with fresh herbs.
