Preparation
Toast the almonds
Heat the BBQ on high, making sure to oil the grill first. Heat a medium, dry pot on medium. Add the almonds (roughly chop if whole) and toast, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until lightly browned and fragrant. Transfer to a plate and reserve the pot.
Cook the bulgur
Roughly chop the parsley leaves and stems. In the reserved pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the tomatoes, ½ the garlic, ½ the spices and S&P. Sauté, 2 to 3 min., until beginning to soften. Add ⅔ of the vinegar and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until mostly evaporated. Add the bulgur, ½ cup water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 6 to 8 min., until the bulgur is tender and the water has been absorbed. Add ½ the parsley. Fluff the bulgur.
Grill the sweet peppers
Meanwhile, halve and core the sweet peppers lengthwise. In a medium bowl, combine the sweet peppers, a drizzle of oil, the remaining spices and S&P. Add to the BBQ and grill, 3 to 4 min. per side, until beginning to soften. Transfer to a plate.
Make the aioli
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the mayo, remaining garlic and vinegar, 1 tsp water (double for 4 portions) and S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the sweet peppers between your plates. Stuff with the bulgur. Drizzle with the aioli. Garnish with the almonds and remaining parsley. Bon appétit!
