# How-To Steps:
01 - In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, coriander, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken breasts and coat thoroughly with marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for minimum 20 minutes, or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor development.
02 - Place bulgur wheat in a bowl and pour boiling water over it. Cover and allow to steep for 15 to 20 minutes until tender. Fluff with a fork. In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped parsley, mint, diced tomatoes, cucumber, and green onions. Add the softened bulgur, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss gently to combine and refrigerate until service.
03 - In a food processor, combine drained chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, and salt. Blend until completely smooth, adding cold water one tablespoon at a time to achieve desired consistency. Transfer to a serving vessel and drizzle with additional olive oil.
04 - Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Place marinated chicken breasts on grill and cook for 6 to 8 minutes per side until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
05 - Arrange sliced grilled chicken on serving plates alongside hummus and tabbouleh. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh herbs as desired.
