Prep the base

For more than 4 servings, first divide all ingredients into batches of no more than 4 servings. Listed amounts are totals; use each batch’s share when following the steps in its own set of pans. Finely chop the onion, grate the garlic, drain and rinse the chickpeas, rinse the basmati rice until the water runs mostly clear, zest the whole lemon before halving it, then juice one half and cut the other into wedges, and roughly chop the parsley.
