Preparation
Roast the squash
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss the squash with a drizzle of oil, ⅓ of the spices and S&P.
- Roast, stirring halfway, 12 to 15 min., until browned and tender.
Cook the chicken
- Meanwhile, pat the chicken dry; season with the remaining spices and S&P.
- In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the chicken* and cook, partially covered, 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through.
- Transfer to a cutting board and let rest before slicing.
Cook the bulgur
- Meanwhile, in a medium pot, combine the bulgur, ¾ cup water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 6 to 8 min., until the bulgur is tender and the water has been absorbed. Fluff the bulgur.
Mise en place

- Core and medium-dice the apple.
Plate your dish
