QUINOA STIR-FRY WITH VEGETABLES AND CHICKEN

This speedy, savory meal pairs well with a workout. Quinoa is an unexpected source of energizing iron and amino acids, protein's building blocks, to nourish newly toned muscles. Body bonus: Potassium in the grain can help beat bloat.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup quinoa, rinsed
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small carrot, thinly sliced
1 medium red bell pepper, cored, seeded and chopped
2 teaspoons grated ginger
1 clove garlic, sliced
1 small red chile, chopped (optional)
2 cups snow peas, trimmed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 egg, beaten
4 ounces grilled chicken breast, chopped
2 scallions, chopped
1/2 cup cilantro
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Place quinoa in a small saucepan with 3/4 cup water and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook, undisturbed, until quinoa absorbs water, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, fluff with a fork and leave uncovered. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook carrot, stirring occasionally, until it softens, about 1 minute. Add bell pepper, ginger, garlic and chile, if desired; cook, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Add peas, sprinkle with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Remove vegetables and return skillet to heat; add quinoa, along with egg. Cook, stirring constantly, until egg is evenly distributed, about 2 minutes. Add vegetables, chicken, scallions, cilantro and soy sauce; cook 1 minute more. Divide stir-fry among 4 bowls; serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables will have a better flavor and texture, and chicken that is free of hormones and antibiotics will be healthier and taste better.
  • Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and other spices will help to tenderize and flavor the chicken.
  • Use a hot skillet: A hot skillet will help to sear the chicken and vegetables, giving them a nice caramelized flavor.
  • Stir-fry in batches: Don't overcrowd the skillet, or the ingredients will not cook evenly. Stir-fry the chicken and vegetables in batches, if necessary.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add the sauce at the end: Adding the sauce at the end of the cooking process will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fry is best served immediately after it is cooked, while it is still hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Stir-fry chicken and vegetables is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. With a little planning and preparation, you can have a healthy and flavorful stir-fry on the table in less than 30 minutes. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give stir-fry chicken and vegetables a try.
