- 6.Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the bulgur is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
- 7.Remove from the heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley. Let it stand for 5 minutes before serving or portioning into meal prep containers.
