CHICKEN TABOULI (TABBOULEH)

You will love this! It's the perfect recipe for a luncheon. Also a good make-ahead recipe for the week. Since I like keeping the seeds in the tomatoes and cukes, I just make the salad without them, then dice them fresh and mix them in each time I serve it. You may want to seed them if you throw it all together at once. I got this from a friend, but I think it came from cooking light or southern living. Serve with bread/butter.

CHICKEN WITH TABBOULEH (BAREFOOT CONTESSA) INA GARTEN

You can use a previously roasted chicken for this healthy salad. I reduced the amount of salt from original recipe. It is best after sitting in the fridge for 24 hours. Edit: If you use regular table Iodized salt instead of the kosher salt, please use much less as table salt creates a saltier final product.

MOROCCAN-SPICED CHICKEN WITH MILLET TABBOULEH



Moroccan-Spiced Chicken with Millet Tabbouleh image

I'’m mixing metaphors a bit with this dish: —a little Moroccan inspired, a little Middle-Eastern inspired. But the thing is, the flavors taste delicious together. This twist on classic tabbouleh is wonderful paired with grilled seafood, meat, or tempeh, and it'’s great on its own too!

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

For the chicken:
2 cups coconut yogurt, plain
Juice of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 orange
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
4 pasture-raised chicken thighs
For the tabbouleh:
2 cups cooked millet
1/2 cup minced parsley
1/2 cup minced mint
1/4 cup minced dill
1 teaspoon iodized sea salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup red wine vinegar

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.

Combining cold-weather vegetables with protein and leafy greens is a sure route to winter salad success. Here cauliflower is grated and tossed with lemon, oil, and herbs for a radical take on the classic bulgur salad.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 bone-in, skin-on chicken-breast halves (1 3/4 pounds total), patted dry
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 head cauliflower (2 pounds), quartered, cored, and grated on the large holes of a box grater (4 packed cups)
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest, plus 1/4 cup fresh juice (from 2 lemons)
1 small shallot, halved and thinly sliced (1/4 cup)
3/4 cup packed chopped fresh herb leaves, such as parsley and mint, plus whole leaves for serving
5 ounces baby kale, tough stems removed
2 large carrots (6 ounces), shaved into ribbons with a peeler
1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet, skin-sides up. Drizzle with oil; season with salt and pepper. Roast until a thermometer inserted in thickest parts registers 160 degrees, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then remove bones and thinly slice.
  • Combine cauliflower, lemon zest, and 3 tablespoons lemon juice. Season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Let stand 20 minutes. Stir in shallot, 3 tablespoons oil, and chopped herbs. Toss kale, carrots, and chickpeas with remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Divide cauliflower mixture among plates; serve with salad, chicken, and herb leaves.

Tips:

  • Start with fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make all the difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices to create a flavorful tabbouleh. Some good options include mint, parsley, cilantro, cumin, and paprika.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Let the tabbouleh rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the chicken and tabbouleh with a variety of sides, such as pita bread, hummus, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Chicken with tabbouleh is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal on the table in no time.
