🍽️ Servings: 4

Ingredients

4 Chicken Breasts

1 cup Bulghur Wheat

1 oz Mixed Olives, drained

4 oz Baby Spinach, chopped

2 Tbsp Za’atar Spice Blend

2 Roma Tomatoes

1 Lemon

1/2 cup Feta Cheese, crumbled

2 Garlic Cloves, minced/grated

2 Tbsp White Vinegar

1 tsp Sugar

Oil

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450F. Add 1 1/2 cup water and 1/4 tsp salt to a medium pot.

Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. While water comes to a boil, cut

tomato into 1/4" pieces. Zest and juice the lemon.

2. Add garlic and bulghur to the boiling water. Stir to combine, remove pot from

heat, cover, and let stand until bulghur is tender and liquid is absorbed

(15 mins).

3. While bulghur rehydrates, pat chicken dry and season with Za’atar spice

blend, salt, and pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.

Add 1/2 tsp oil, then the chicken. Sear until golden-brown. Transfer chicken

to a sheet and bake on the middle rack in the oven until chicken is cooked

through (10-12 mins)

4. Meanwhile, whisk together vinegar, lemon juice, lemon zest, 1 tsp oil, and

1/2 tsp salt in a small bowl. Set aside.

5. When bulghur is done, fluff with a fork. Add olives, spinach, tomatoes, and

half the dressing to the pot. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to

combine.

6. Thinly slice chicken. Divide bulghur salad between plates, then top with

chicken. Sprinkle with feta and drizzle remaining dressing over top.
