Instructions
Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Add 3/4 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl) and broth concentrate to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, roughly chop spinach. Add bulgur and spinach to boiling broth, then stir to combine. Cover and remove the pot from heat. Let stand until bulgur is tender, liquid is absorbed and spinach is wilted, 16-18 min. Fluff bulgur with a fork.
Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices. Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch pieces on a separate cutting board.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. While the pan heats, add chicken, Harissa Spice Blend and cornstarch to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chicken. Cook until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side. (NOTE: Chicken will finish cooking in step 5.)
Add apricot spread, soy sauce and 1/2 cup water (3/4 cup for 4 ppl) to the pan with chicken. Cook, stirring often, until apricot spread dissolves, 1 min.
Add onions and peppers to the pan with chicken and sauce. Bring sauce to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, veggies are tender-crisp and chicken is cooked through, 5-7 min.** Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then stir to combine.
Meanwhile, heat a small non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add almonds to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)Remove from heat. Divide bulgur between plates. Top with stir-fry. Sprinkle almonds over top.
