1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary (optional)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Bring chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan. Add rice and rosemary. Reduce heat and simmer until rice is tender and broth is absorbed, about 45 minutes.

Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic; stir in onion and shallots. Cook, stirring frequently until softened, about 5 minutes. Add green bell pepper; cook until tender, about 1 minute. Stir chickpeas and tomatoes into the vegetable mixture; cook until heated through, about 1 minute.

Spoon the cooked rice into the vegetable mixture. Pour in eggs and stir until mixture is dry. Season with salt and pepper; remove from heat. Stir in pine nuts and basil.
