Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 15

200ml vegetable stock , made with freshly boiled water
125g bulgur wheat
meat from a roughly 900g ready-roasted smoked or unsmoked whole chicken (about 550g ready-roasted chicken breasts), not too fridge-cold
2 ripe yellow-fleshed peaches
25g pack mint
25g pack dill
handful basil (optional)
50g toasted pecan halves, some left whole
100g feta cheese , crumbled
zest and juice 2 limes (about 4 tbsp juice)

3 tbsp mild olive oil
1 garlic clove , crushed
1 tsp golden caster sugar
1 heaped tsp wholegrain mustard

Steps:

  • Pour the boiling-hot stock over the bulgur in a large bowl. Cover with cling film and set aside for 15-20 mins until the stock has been totally absorbed and the grains are tender.
  • Meanwhile, slice or tear the chicken into bite-sized pieces, and cut each peach into 12 wedges. Whisk the dressing ingredients together with some seasoning.

  • Roughly chop the herbs just before serving, then toss into the bulgur. Spread over a large platter, then top with the chicken, peaches, pecans and feta. Roughly toss everything together a little. Drizzle over the dressing to serve.
