Combine bulgur and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer. Cover and cook on low heat until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Transfer to a large bowl.

Meanwhile, heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp. salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and just browned, 6 minutes. Let cool slightly.

Add the chicken and any juices from the skillet to the bowl with the bulgur. Add tomatoes, scallions, parsley, and mint; stir to combine. Whisk lemon juice and the remaining 4 Tbsp. oil and 1/2 tsp. salt in a small bowl. Add to the bulgur mixture and stir to combine.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
