recipe

  • Step 1
    In a mixing bowl, add the balsamic vinegar, a dash of seasonings you have on hand (we love Italian seasoning, garlic powder & onion powder) & a drizzle of olive oil. Mix it all together. Add the chicken breast & turn to coat. Add the bowl to the refrigerator so the chicken marinates while the rest of the ingredients are prepped.
  • Step 2
    Cook the quinoa according to package directions.
  • Step 3
    Meanwhile, wash & thinly slice the bell peppers.
  • Step 4
    Peel & slice the red onion into 1/4 inch strips.
  • Step 5
    Fluff the quinoa, season to taste & set aside.
  • Step 6
    Heat a drizzle of olive oil on a grill pan or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken & vegetables. Season everything with salt & add a drizzle of oil. Cook the chicken for 6-7 min on each side or until fully cooked. Stir the vegetables every few min to brown on all sides.
  • Step 7
    Plate the quinoa, grilled vegetables & chicken. Season to taste, serve & enjoy!
