Traditional Lebanese tabbouleh is basically an herb salad—fresh parsley and mint are the real star ingredients, making the salad fragrant and intensely refreshing. Here, Chef Miguel subs fluffy couscous for the traditional bulgur wheat. And he adds za’atar-rubbed grilled chicken breast, providing extra protein and the Middle Eastern spice blend’s signature tangy, nutty, savory flavor. It’s perfectly complemented by the creamy dressing and bright pops of juicy sweetness from pomegranate arils. With its abundance of tastes and textures, this one-bowl meal makes a hearty, nutrient-packed lunch or dinner.

For as long as Chef Miguel Galan can remember, he has observed his family in the kitchen of their family restaurant in Madrid, preparing traditional Spanish dishes and classic tapas.
After finishing his university film studies, Chef worked for several years as a sound engineer in many films, never leaving behind his passion for cooking, art, and colors. One day, he decided to leave the cinema and return to what has always been his passion, cooking.
He began traveling through several countries, spending several seasons in restaurants in Barcelona, London (The Little Taperia, named best tapas bar in London in 2016), Bristol (working in Chef Jaime Oliver's kitchen), Amsterdam, and Ibiza.
In 2016, Chef Miguel Galan relocated to Los Angeles and became fascinated with the culinary offerings and the possibilities of learning new techniques and recipes. Above all, he began to study food as a form of healing. He became passionate about learning about superfoods, ancient grains, mushrooms, and algae. He began applying them to his recipes with known flavors and ingredients that can promote health. In this manner, he started working with private clients in their kitchens, preparing special diets and looking for ways to help with various health problems. His cuisine is international, with flavors from the Mediterranean and Asia, always making colorful, healthy dishes with balanced flavors.
