Method

  1. Poach Chicken: Simmer chicken breast in the bone broth for 15 minutes, then shred using two forks.

  2. Cook Freekeh: Boil freekeh in the remaining seasoned broth for 20 minutes until tender and liquid absorbs.

  3. Whisk Sauce: Combine the low-fat Greek yogurt with fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt.

  4. Assemble Bowl: Layer the warm freekeh, top with shredded chicken, drizzle yogurt sauce, and scatter pine nuts.

Chef's Tip

Nutritional Insight: Ancient green freekeh delivers prebiotic low-GI complex carbohydrates that support stable metabolic health and prolonged satiety. Culinary Hack: Shred the chicken whilst hot to allow the meat to reabsorb the savoury broth juices instantly.
