Kittencal's Greek Lemony Rice With Feta image

Make this only if you are a lover of Greek food, this is a full flavored rice with intense flavor and not for those with a plain palette! --- since not everyone has a taste for olives I have left them as optional, I most always add them in -- after making this a few times you will most likely want to adjust some of the ingredients to suit your taste, or you may not, the amounts listed are close to what I use when I make this rice --- this is very good!

I followed the recipe exactly and the rice turned out mushy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more lemon and feta.
