Instructions

1

Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until deeply golden and cooked through. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.

2

While the chicken rests, prepare the tabbouleh: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked bulgur, finely chopped parsley, mint, diced tomato, and cucumber.

3

Drizzle with the fresh lemon juice and olive oil. Toss gently to combine, ensuring the herbs coat the grains evenly. The salad should smell bright and herbaceous.

4

Plate the tabbouleh as a fresh bed, top with the warm sliced chicken, and finish with a pinch of flaky sea salt.
