Bright, herbaceous chimichurri is the star of this hearty chicken-topped grain bowl. First, you’ll cook carrots and chicken in our fajita spice blend until browned and tender. You'll spoon them over a fluffy grain blend of rice, bulgur and barley, then drizzle with tangy chimichurri. Finish with a sprinkle of crispy friend onions and a drizzle of sour cream—all in a quick 10 minutes!
