Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F.
Season both sides of the chicken with Turkish Spice Blend and saute in deep ovenproof skillet with one tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook for 3 minutes per side and golden brown. Set aside (chicken will finish cooking when baked).
Add remaining olive oil to skillet and saute the red onion and garlic until golden and wilted, about 5 minutes.
Add the bulgar and oregano to skillet, stir to mix, cook for 2 minutes. Add the spinach and tomatoes, stirring to mix thoroughly, and cook another 2 minutes. Spinach should have wilted and tomatoes start to break down.
Add the chicken stock and stir. Nestle the chicken on top of the bulgar spinach mixture and press down gently.
Cover with lid and transfer skillet to oven. Bake for 15 minutes. Check to be sure chicken internal temp should be 165°F.
Remove from oven and sprinkle with feta cheese and parsley. Serve immediately.
