Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup medium-grain bulgur wheat
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup sliced almonds, toasted (see page 365)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add bulgur; stir to coat.

    Step 2

    Pour in broth; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low. Cover, and simmer until bulgur is tender and has absorbed all liquid, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat; sprinkle bulgur with cranberries. Cover, and let stand 5 minutes. Add toasted almonds to bulgur; fluff with a fork, and serve.
