Lemony Chicken With Bulgur
- 6 sundried tomato halves (not oil-packed)
- 1/2 cup boiling water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound chicken tenderloin pieces
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 cup bulgur
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/8 teaspoon allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Juice of 1 lemon (about 4 tablespoons) or 4 tablespoons of bottled lemon juice
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- In a small heat-safe bowl, cover the tomatoes with the boiling water; set aside for about 15 minutes to rehydrate. Remove the tomatoes from the water, pat dry with paper towels, and chop.
- Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the chicken, and brown for approximately 1 minute per side. Reduce heat to medium and cook for another 5 minutes, turning once or twice, until the chicken is nicely browned and cooked through. Remove to a plate lined with paper towels; set aside.
- In the remaining oil, cook the onion over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes, or until soft. Add the rest of the ingredients, except for the broth, and stir. Return the chicken to the skillet.
- Add the broth and simmer, covered, for about 20 minutes over low heat, until the bulgur is tender but still crunchy.
