Chicken And Tabbouleh Salad Recipes

CHICKEN WITH TABBOULEH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a heat-proof bowl, pour the boiling water over the bulgur wheat. Add the lemon juice, 1/4 cup olive oil, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt. Stir. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the bulgur to stand at room temperature for about 1 hour.
• Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet and rub it with olive oil. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until just cooked. Set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Remove the chicken meat from the bones and discard the skin. Cut the chicken into medium dice and add to the tabbouleh. Add the scallions, mint, parsley, cucumber, tomatoes, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Season, to taste, and serve immediately or cover and refrigerate. The flavors will improve as it sits.

CHICKEN SHAWARMA TABBOULEH SALAD

Steps:

• In a 8x8 baking dish add the smoked paprika, turmeric, cumin, cinnamon, pepper, salt, lemon juice, olive oil, red pepper flakes, garlic, and whisk well. Add the chicken, sliced onion and toss making sure the chicken is well coated in the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least an hour. The longer the meat marinates the more flavour you'll have.
• Preheat the oven to 425 F degrees.
• Bake uncovered until the chicken is browned and crisp on the edges, and cooked through. It should take about 40 to 45 minutes. If you want the chicken crispier on top, turn the broiler on to high and broil for 3 minutes until nice and crispy on the outside.
• Let the chicken rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
• While the chicken is baking, prepare the tabbouleh salad. Add the water to a small pot and bring to boil. When the water is boiling add the bulgur and cover. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes or until all the water is absorbed. Stir occasionally. Let the bulgur cool before adding to the salad.
• Add the bulgur to a large bowl, then add the remaining ingredients. Toss well.
• To assemble the salad, spread the tabbouleh salad over the bottom of a large shallow plate. Arrange with sliced chicken, sliced avocado, Kalamata olives and sprinkle some feta cheese over the top. Serve with hummus and pita bread.

JICAMA TABBOULEH AND CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the jicama into chunks, and then pulse in the food processor until finely ground. Transfer to a large bowl.
• In the same processor carafe, pulse the parsley and mint until finely chopped. Add to the jicama along with the tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, 2 tablespoons of the oil, the lemon juice, 2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Stir together the remaining 2 tablespoons oil with the paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and rub all over chicken.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• Grill the chicken, turning, until grill marks appear, about 4 minutes. Let the chicken rest 5 minutes.
• Serve, topped with the jicama tabbouleh.

MOROCCAN-SPICED CHICKEN WITH MILLET TABBOULEH

Steps:

• Marinate the chicken: In a large ziplock bag, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, orange zest, and spices. Add the chicken, and marinate for at least 1 hour. (If using tempeh, use the same marinade, but for 30 minutes.)
• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Prepare a broiler pan or a sheet tray with wire rack by spraying with oil. Set aside.
• Make the tabbouleh: Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, and stir well. Let the flavors meld for at least 20 minutes (which is perfect, since you need that time to cook the chicken).
• Remove chicken (or tempeh) from marinade, pat dry with paper towels, and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. If your chicken has skin, place it skin-side down.
• Bake the chicken for 20 to 25 minutes, then flip and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, skin side up, until meat has reached 160°F and skin is crisp. Remove from heat, and let rest 5 minutes before serving.
