    40 minutes

One part sheet-pan dinner, one part grain bowl—this quick dinner is modeled after the robustly flavorful Aleppo pepper–seasoned roast chicken at Callie in San Diego. Here, yogurt works double duty in the recipe, acting as a coating for Aleppo pepper–seasoned chicken thighs and a drizzle-able sauce for the final bowl. Broccolini roasts alongside the chicken on a single sheet pan, while thinly sliced red onions pickle and a cup of hearty bulgur steams on the stove.
