Directions

Prep 20 minCook 20 min
  1. 1

    Rinse and pick over the lentils. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil, add the lentils, then simmer until just tender, 18–22 minutes. Drain well.

  2. 2

    While the lentils cook, mince the garlic, finely dice the red onion, and chop the tomato and cucumber. Chop the dill.

  3. 3

    Spread the drained lentils on a tray to steam-dry for a few minutes, then transfer to a large bowl. Add the olive oil and red wine vinegar and toss until coated.

  4. 4

    Stir in the garlic, red onion, tomatoes, cucumber, and the drained, rinsed chickpeas. Season with dill, salt, and pepper, and toss to combine.

  5. 5

    Chill for about 10 minutes to let the flavors meld, then taste and adjust salt, pepper, or vinegar before serving.
