Garlic Chicken With Quinoa
I based this quick and easy stir-fry recipe on a recommendation from trader joe's. Quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) is a south american grain, lower in carbohydrates and higher in protein and fat than white rice.
Steps
Cook the quinoa in the chicken broth as you would prepare rice , mixing in the basil just before serving.
Heat oil in a wok and stir fry the chicken till browned , about 5 minutes.
Add vegetables.
Stir fry 2 minutes.
Add garlic , salt , pepper.
Continue to stir fry till peppers are slightly limp.
Top the quinoa with the stir fry mixture and serve hot.
Ingredients
