- Place fine bulgur in a bowl, cover with boiling water, and let it soak for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain any excess water and fluff with a fork.

- Finely chop the fresh parsley, mint, tomato, cucumber, and red onion.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the fluffed bulgur, shredded chicken, chopped parsley, mint, tomato, cucumber, and red onion.
- Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil, then season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Toss everything gently to combine well.
- Serve immediately, or chill for at least 30 minutes for flavors to meld, which often enhances the taste.
