Cooking Instructions and Tips

Bulgur Time
1

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Pop a medium saucepan (with a tight-fitting lid) on medium-high heat. Melt in half the butter (see pantry for amount). When hot, add the half of the garlic and stir-fry for 1 min.

Pour the water for the bulgur wheat (see pantry for amount) into the saucepan. Stir in half of the chicken stock paste and bring to the boil. 

Stir in the bulgur, bring back up to the boil and simmer for 1 min. Pop a lid on the pan and remove from the heat. Leave to the side for 12-15 mins or until ready to serve.

Get Frying
2

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. 

Once the oil is hot, lay the chicken thighs flat in the pan. Fry until the chicken is browned, 4-5 mins each side. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

 

Add the Flavour
3

Once the chicken is browned, add the roasted spice and herb blend and remaining garlic into the pan. Fry for 1 min.

Simmer the Sauce
4

Pour the passata and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) into the frying pan. Stir in the sun-dried tomato paste, remaining chicken stock paste and sugar (see pantry for amount). 

Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through, 6-8 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Finish the Bulgur
5

When the bulgur wheat is ready, fluff it up with a fork. Taste the bulgur wheat and season with salt and pepper if needed. 

When the chicken stew is cooked, add the spinach to the pan a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins. Stir through the remaining pantry butter (see pantry for amount). Taste the stew and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Serve Up
6

Share the bulgur wheat between bowls.

Top with the chicken thighs and spoon over the sauce.

Crumble the Greek style salad cheese over the top to finish. 

Enjoy!
