Tabbouleh with Chicken and Red Pepper Recipe

The Arabic Food Recipes kitchen (The Home of Delicious Arabic Food Recipes) invites you to try Tabbouleh with Chicken and Red Pepper Recipe.  Enjoy Middle Eastern food and learn how to make Tabbouleh with Chicken and Red Pepper.  

Use rotisserie or leftover chicken for this dish, if you like. If you're making the mixture a few hours or more in advance, store the cucumber and tomato separately and add them close to serving time to keep the salad at its best. Serve with Lemony Hummus with Spicy Whole-Wheat Pita Chips for a flavorful, Middle East–themed light lunch.
