For the centerpiece of this healthy, wholesome meal, Chef Ahmet marinates chicken thighs overnight in richly spiced yogurt to make them even more tender and juicy, then grills them for deliciously smoky char. He serves a generous portion atop nutty, fiber-rich bulgur (AKA cracked wheat grains) with tangy blistered cherry tomatoes, cumin- and paprika-spiced chickpeas, and crisp baby kale—all drizzled with savory tahini and sweet pomegranate syrup. The crowning touch: A dollop of cicik—thick, creamy yogurt swirled with fresh dill, garlic, cucumber, Feta cheese, and lemon juice. It’s hard to imagine that a meal with only 530 calories can contain this much flavor!
