Recipe Instructions

Step 1: Roast the beets

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Peel and halve the beets; cut into ¼ inch wedges. On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil and S&P. Roast, flipping halfway, 15 to 18 min., until tender.

Step 2: Mise en place

Meanwhile, roughly chop the parsley leaves and stems. Medium-dice the tomatoes.

Step 3: Cook the chicken

Pat the chicken dry with paper towel; season with ½ the spices and S&P. In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the chicken* and cook, partially covered, 4 to 6 min. per side, until cooked through.

Step 4: Cook the bulgur

Meanwhile, in a medium pot, combine the bulgur, ¾ cup water (double for 4 portions), ½ the remaining spices and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 6 to 8 min., until the bulgur is tender and the water has been absorbed. Fluff the bulgur.

Step 5: Make the salad

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the parsley, tomatoes, vinegar, 2 tbsp olive oil (double for 4 portions), the remaining spices and S&P.

Step 6: Plate your dish

Spread the hummus out along the side of your bowls. Top with the bulgur, beets, chicken and salad. Bon appétit!
