I'm really not sure where I got this recipe--from some "bean" website, I think. It's really very tasty. I don't use the olives, but the feta cheese is a must.

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Try to buy seasonal produce whenever possible.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you're cooking meat or vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Season your food well: Don't be afraid to use salt and pepper. They're essential for bringing out the flavor of your food.
  • Don't overcook your food: Overcooked food is dry and tough. Cook your food until it's just done, then remove it from the heat.
  • Let your food rest: After you cook your food, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the food more tender.
