Best Grilled Spicy Chicken With Bulgur Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH BULGUR

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Coat the chicken legs with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then sprinkle all over with the cinnamon, ginger, cayenne and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Transfer to the grill, skin-side up; cover and cook 12 minutes. Flip the chicken, cover and continue cooking until the skin is golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 160 degrees F, 10 to 15 more minutes. Grill the grapes, covered but turning occasionally, until slightly charred, about 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine 1 1/2 cups water, the butter, lemon zest and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Add the bulgur, reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, covered, until tender, about 15 minutes. (Drain any excess water, if necessary.)
• Fluff the bulgur with a fork and stir in the grilled grapes, discarding the stems. Stir in the scallions, parsley and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with salt. Serve with the chicken.

MIDDLE EASTERN CHICKEN AND BULGUR

Steps:

• Heat on high a nonstick skillet that is large enough to hold all the ingredients. Reduce heat to medium-high, and add 1 teaspoon of the olive oil. Saute the chicken breasts until golden on both sides. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, chop whole onion. Add the remaining oil to the pan, and saute the onion until it softens and begins to turn golden. Meanwhile, mince garlic and add.
• Stir in the bulgur, cardamon, coriander and cumin and mix well. Add the stock, and reduce heat to medium-low. Return the chicken to the pan, cover and continue cooking until liquid has been absorbed.
• Meanwhile, grate lemon rind, squeeze juice and add both to pan as chicken and bulgur cook. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
