Low-Lift Halloumi & Organic Chicken Grain Bowls
Enjoy a head start with prepped ingredients
- Milk
- Tree Nuts
Pan-seared chicken tops a warm grain blend tossed with baby spinach, golden raisins, and crumbled feta, all brightened with fresh lemon juice and olive oil. The base of each bowl is a swoosh of smoky romesco sauce, spread across the bowl like a pizza sauce. A garnish of fresh mint and toasted almonds adds a cool, nutty finish.

Cooking Steps
Wash and dry produce.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels; season all over with salt and pepper. Quarter lemon. Pick mint leaves from stems; roughly chop leaves.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes per side. (TIP: Lower heat and cover if chicken begins to brown too quickly.)
Transfer to a plate.
Massage grain blend in package to break up grains. Using kitchen shears, remove very top of package.
Add garlic herb butter and raisins to package (for 4 servings, divide ingredients evenly between packages).
Cover with a damp paper towel (for 4, cover each package with a damp paper towel). Microwave until warmed through, 90 seconds (for 4, microwave both packages at the same time for 2-3 minutes). TIP: Microwave times may vary. Be careful when handling the pouch.
Transfer grain mixture to a large bowl.
To bowl with grain mixture, add spinach, feta, a drizzle of olive oil, juice from one lemon wedge, a pinch of salt, and pepper (large drizzle of olive oil and juice from two lemon wedges for 4 servings); toss until everything is evenly coated. Taste and season with more lemon juice, salt, or pepper if desired.
Divide romesco between shallow bowls; using the back of a spoon, spread into a thin layer (like you’re saucing a pizza) in the center of each bowl.
Top with spinach and grains and chicken. Garnish with mint and almonds. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.
