Mediterranean

You haven’t tasted chickpeas until you’ve tried them roasted. Trust us, the delicious crunch is absolutely worth the time they spend in a hot oven. In this recipe, they’re roasted with smoked paprika and tossed with toasted bulgur, roasted zucchini and tomatoes, and feta cheese for a mishmash of savory Mediterranean flavors. You likely won’t have leftovers, but if you do, they’ll taste even better the next day.

Preparation
1
Prep

• Adjust racks to middle and top positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Trim and dice zucchini into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Halve tomatoes. Strip thyme leaves from stems. Peel and mince garlic. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Halve lemon.

2
Roast Veggies

• Toss zucchini, tomatoes, and half the thyme leaves on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. • Roast on middle rack, tossing halfway through, until tender, 15-20 minutes.

3
Roast Chickpeas

• Meanwhile, drain and rinse chickpeas; dry thoroughly with paper towels. On a second baking sheet, toss half the chickpeas (all for 4 servings) with a large drizzle of olive oil, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Roast on top rack, tossing halfway through, until crisp, 18-20 minutes. (It’s natural for the chickpeas to pop a bit while roasting.)

4
Toast Bulgur

• While chickpeas roast, heat 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings), garlic, and scallion whites in a medium pot over medium-high heat; cook until butter melts and garlic is fragrant, 1 minute. • Add bulgur and remaining thyme leaves; stir to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until bulgur is lightly toasted, 1-2 minutes.

5
Cook Bulgur

• Add stock concentrate and 1 cup water (2 cups for 4 servings) to pot with bulgur. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until bulgur is tender, 12-15 minutes. • Drain any excess liquid if necessary. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve. **While bulgur cooks, pat chicken dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium- high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. Turn off heat; transfer to a cutting board.**

6
Finish & Serve

• Add half the veggies, half the feta, and a squeeze of lemon juice to pot with bulgur; stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. • Divide between plates; top with chickpeas and remaining veggies. Garnish with scallion greens and remaining feta. Serve. **Slice chicken crosswise. Stir half the chicken into pot with bulgur; top with remaining.**
