Heat the olive oil in a large frying or sauté pan over medium heat, then add the sliced onions and diced red bell pepper. Cook for 3 minutes with the lid on until softened, but not browned.

Add the brown rice to the pan, stirring frequently, and cook for 2 minutes, allowing the rice to toast slightly for added flavor.

Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, adding salt and pepper to taste. To serve, garnish with extra parsley and a sprinkle of lemon zest. This dish pairs well with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc or Garnacha.
