• 1  tablespoon  olive oil
• 4  6-ounce  boneless, skinless chicken breasts

• 3  cups  low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 1/2  cups  medium-grain bulgur
• 2  cloves garlic, chopped
• 1  bunch spinach (thick stems removed), coarsely chopped
• 1/2  cup  fresh basil leaves, torn

Directions

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper.

3. Add the broth, bulgur, garlic, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper to the skillet and bring to a boil.
4. Nestle the chicken in the bulgur, reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer until bulgur is tender and chicken is cooked through, 15 to 17 minutes.
