Rice: Put brown rice on to cook per package directions. Chickpeas: Heat oil in heavy saucepan over medium-low heat and add onion and garlic. Stir for about 5 minutes until wilted and not browned. Stir in cumin. Add and stir in chickpeas, tomatoes, thyme, honey, lemon juice and broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, add salt and pepper and simmer for 4 minutes. Taste chickpeas and adjust seasonings per your preference. Take out thyme sprigs and stir in parsley. ** It takes no effort at all to make your own garbanzo beans. Buy a bag of beans (about $1.00), rinse, place in a large saucepan with water and salt (if you are going to use them to top salads, make hummus or for this recipe). Follow package directions. I have found cooking them this way they are more firm than those in the can -- and more nutritious! -- so adjust your cook time to desired firmness.
