Chicken Bulgur Pilaf To Pin It Even when I am following a low carb diet, I can't seem to tear myself from cheating on eating bulgur; I have been raised on eating this healthy nutty grain. Ginger Chicken is a homestyle Chinese dish made with lots of fresh ginger, garlic and scallions, cooked down into a sticky brown sauce great over rice or noodles. I first heard of Ginger Chicken at a Chinese restaurant in Rochester, NY, where I waited tables.

I have substituted quinoa for the bulgur to great success (prepare according to package directions). Note: Bulgur is made by parboiling, drying and coarsely grinding or cracking wheat berries. Don't confuse bulgur with cracked wheat, which is simply that–cracked wheat. Since the parboiling step is skipped, cracked wheat must be cooked for up to an hour whereas bulgur simply needs a quick soak in hot water for most uses.

Steps to make Ginger Chicken with Bulgur Pilaf and Beans, Hainanese-inspired:
  1. Brine chicken in water and salt in a container overnight in the fridge.
  2. In a pot combine and boil the broth ingredients for 10-15 mins (with lid)
  3. Fish out the chicken and discard the brine water. Rub chicken with a little salt (already salty) and pour drops of sesame oil on the skin side. Then add to the boiling broth.
  4. Bring the pot to a boil again then lower heat. Simmer with lid for 5 minutes then flip to the other side and simmer another 5 minutes.
  5. Turn off heat and let it continue to cook in its residual heat for 20mins (covered with lid).
  6. BULGUR: Meanwhile, in a pan, heat oil and toast bulgur a few minutes. Then add 1 cup of the broth from the pot of chicken. Cover and turn off heat once all liquid is absorbed. Set aside and leave covered for another 20 minutes.
  7. Go back to the pot and fish out cooked chicken. Place in a container with a little broth, skin side down to prevent from drying while you prepare the veggies.
  8. In the remaining broth in the pot, cook your veggies until done.
  9. Serve chicken with bulgur/wheat rice and veggies.

It is best to buy bulgur from a reliable health-food store. The whole grain is available in three grinds - fine, medium and coarse. The coarse variety is the ideal for making stuffing and pilaf. Medium-grind bulgur can be used to prepare cereals and the fine grind can be used for soups and salads. Dry bulgur should be stored in an airtight.
