Steps

  1. Bring a full kettle of water to the boil. Preheat BBQ grill or hot plate to medium-high (if using).
  2. Cook bulgur. Add bulgur wheat and a pinch of salt to a bowl and cover with boiling water. Cover and leave to soak for 15-18 minutes, until tender. Drain well.
  3. Prep bulgur veggies. Add all remaining bulgur ingredients to a salad bowl.

  6. Finish dish. Add cooked bulgur to bowl with veggies. Toss well to combine and season.
  7. Thinly slice chicken, reserving any resting juices.
