Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air

Chop your sweet potato[es] (skin on) into small bite-sized pieces

Step 1
2

Add your ground smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), dried oregano and the juice of half your lemon[s] (you'll use the rest later!) to a plate with 1/2 tbsp [3/4 tbsp] [1 tbsp] vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and pepper

Give it a good mix up – this is your spice paste

Add the chicken to the plate and turn several times until fully coated in the spice paste

Step 2
3

Add the chopped sweet potato to one side of a baking tray, then drizzle with 1/2 tbsp [3/4 tbsp] [1 tbsp] vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and give it a good mix up

Add the coated chicken to the other side of the tray

(Doubled your protein? Do this in batches!)

Put the tray[s] in the oven for 18-20 min or until everything is cooked through (no pink meat!)

Step 3
4

Boil a kettle

Add your bulgur wheat to a pot with plenty of boiled water and a pinch of salt (the same as you would for pasta)

Bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for an initial 2 min

Meanwhile, roughly chop your green beans

Step 4
5

Once the bulgur has had 2 min, add the chopped green beans and your blanched edamame beans to the pot and cook for a further 5-7 min or until everything is cooked through and tender, once tender, drain and return to the pot

Meanwhile, add your pumpkin seeds to the tray[s] with the chicken and sweet potato and cook for a further 2-3 min or until toasted and golden

Tip: Watch them like a hawk to make sure they don't burn!

Step 5
6

Whilst everything is cooking, peel and grate (or finely chop) your garlic

Combine your natural yoghurt with the juice of the remaining lemon, grated garlic (not a fan of raw garlic? Use half!) and a pinch of salt in a small bowl

Add 1/2 tbsp [3/4 tbsp] [1 tbsp] olive oil and 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] cold water and stir it all together – this is your yoghurt dressing

Step 6
7

Wash your salad, then pat it dry with kitchen paper

Add the salad and roasted sweet potato to the drained bulgur and veg, then give everything a good mix up – this is your bulgur salad

Slice the cooked chicken finely on a clean board

Step 7
8

Serve the sliced chicken over the bulgur salad

Drizzle the yoghurt dressing all over and sprinkle with your toasted pumpkin seeds

Enjoy!
