  1. In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, tomato paste, paprika, salt, oregano (or thyme), and pepper to create the marinade.

  3. In a pot over medium heat, warm olive oil and sauté chopped onion until translucent. Add Basmati rice to coat before pouring in chicken broth and salt. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer until cooked.
