Preparation
Roast the chicken & carrots
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.

- Pat the chicken dry; season with ½ the spices and S&P.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss the carrots with a drizzle of oil, the remaining spices and S&P.

- Meanwhile, in a large pot, combine the bulgur, 1 cup water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil.
