1
Prepare the Rice
Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, add 1 cup of rice, 2 cups of water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
2
Grill the Vegetables
Slice bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion. In a bowl, toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and have grill marks.
3
Cook the Protein
Prepare your choice of protein according to package instructions. If using grilled chicken, gyros, or shawarma, cook until heated through. For falafel, you can pan-fry or bake as per the instructions.
4
Assemble the Chello Box
In a serving box or plate, place a portion of the cooked basmati rice, add grilled vegetables, and top with your choice of protein. Serve with pita bread on the side.
