"Chilli chicken with warm quinoa salad"

This is a great throw together meal using leftovers.

I basically steamed some greens, used leftover roast vegetables and grilled some chicken (you could use leftover meat), tossed through some Quinoa and BOOM! One delicious, tasty meal on the plate! 

 

 Ingredients

 Jamie Oliver Chilli, garlic and rosemary chicken fillets

1 cup of tricolour Quinoa

Small Broccoli chopped into small pieces

Roast vegetables (i used red onion, eggplant and pumpkin)

Large handful of baby spinach

1/3 cup roasted slivered almonds

1/2 cup large chunks of crumbled feta

 

Dressing

 1 small lemon (juiced)

1 TBS EVOO

1 clove crushed garlic

S + P

 

Method,

 1. Cook quinoa as per packet instructions (be sure to give it a good rinse before cooking)

2. Steam greens (keep a little firm - don't overcook)

3. Warm up leftover roast veges in oven whilst roasting almond

4. Mix juice of lemon, EVOO, S+P and crushed garlic in separate bowl

5. Once Quinoa is cooked pour in large mixing bowl and allow to cool slightly
