Roasted Chicken With Cauliflower

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. It's served alongside sliced roasted chicken breast over a bed of baby kale and shredded carrots.

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.

This was a great recipe. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the tabbouleh was a nice change from the usual rice or potatoes.

This recipe was a disaster! The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the tabbouleh was bland and tasteless.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is always juicy and the tabbouleh is a refreshing and healthy side dish.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I would add more spices to the chicken and tabbouleh next time.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the cauliflower tabbouleh was delicious. I would make this again, but I would adjust the cooking time for the chicken.
