    This is a simple and healthy dish that I adapted from a Rocco gets Real recipe. I intended to serve this as a main dish, and then last minute we were invited to a friends house. I brought it along and we served it as a side dish. Everyone raved about the taste and it is a beautiful presentation, so I'd highly recommend it as something to bring to a pot luck.

    Ingredients

    • 1 1/2 cups water
    • 1 1/2 cups coarse bulgur
    • Kosher Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
    • 1 large tomato diced
    • 1 small red onion diced
    • 1 bunch flat leaf parsley chopped
    • Juice and zest of 3 lemons
    • 1 cup Greek-style plain yogurt or plain yogurt
    • 1 1/2 pound warm rotisserie chicken, meat separated and torn into bite sized chunks.

    Directions

    1. In a large saucepan bring the water and bulgur to a boil. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and turn off heat (or remove from heat if using an electric burner). Allow to sit for about 25-30 minutes until water is absorbed and bulgur is tender.
    2. In a large bowl, combine the warm bulgur, tomato, red onion, all but 1/2 cup of the parsley, and the juice and zest of 2 lemons. Season generously with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
    3. In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt with the juice and zest of the last lemon and the remaining 1/2 cup parsley.
    4. Add the chicken to the bowl and toss to combine. Season to taste with additional kosher salt and fresh pepper.
    5. Serve the chicken on top of the warm bulgur salad.

      This was outstanding. I really loved the combination of the warm bulgur and spices with the yogurt-chicken mix. It's a winner!

        This is a complete, delicious meal and looks great! The day after having it for dinner, my kids and I fought over who would get the leftovers. It held up well and tasted just and good...maybe even better. It's one of those meals that serves up well no matter what the season.

          Yum! That looks really good and like a nice quick meal! I think it might be yummy to do dill with the chicken or to add a little cucumber too along the Greek yogurt! Yum! Definitely gonna try this. Thanks!
