Instructions
a) Pour the water for the bulgur (see pantry for amount) into a large saucepan, stir in half of the chicken stock paste and bring to the boil.

c) Leave to the side for 12-15 mins or until ready to serve.
a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
b) Once hot, add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper.
c) Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

b) When ready, fluff up the bulgur with a fork. Spoon half of the dressing over the bulgur and stir through.
c) Toss the baby leaves through the remaining dressing. TIP: Don't add the leaves too early or they'll go soggy.
