How To Make Chicken & Pomegranate Bulgur Pilaf
Serves:
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 1 cup bulgur
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped mint leaves
- 1/4 cup chopped almonds
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
-
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
-
Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, ground cumin, and cinnamon. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
-
In the same skillet, add the bulgur and toast it for a few minutes, stirring constantly.
-
Slowly pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the bulgur is tender and has absorbed the liquid.
-
While the bulgur is cooking, shred the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces.
-
Once the bulgur is cooked, remove from heat and fluff it with a fork. Stir in the shredded chicken, pomegranate seeds, chopped parsley, chopped mint leaves, and chopped almonds.
-
Serve the chicken and pomegranate bulgur pilaf warm and enjoy!
