Chicken Bulgur Salad
Photo: Oxmoor House
Reminiscent of tabbouleh, this Lebanese-inspired dish is a smart choice if you want to incorporate more fiber into your diet. Bulgur—wheat berries that have been steamed, dried, and ground—is the basis of many salads in the Middle East. Serve this salad with warmed whole wheat pita bread.
Prep: 3 minutes; Cook: 11 minutes
How to Make It
Step 1
Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan; stir in bulgur. Return to a boil; reduce heat, cover, and simmer 8 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Drain bulgur, and rinse with cold water; drain well.
Step 2
Combine chicken and remaining ingredients in a large bowl, tossing to coat. Add bulgur; toss gently to coat.
