Quinoa Chicken

Quinoa Chicken

Ingredients:

2 cups chicken broth

1 cup quinoa

2 teaspoons oil or as needed

1/2 onion chopped

2 cloves garlic minced

1 1/2 pounds ground chicken (or turkey or beef)

1 1/2 (10 ounce) cans diced tomatoes

Directions:

1) Bring chicken broth and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.

2) Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic in hot oil until onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add ground chicken and break into small pieces while cooking until completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes.

3) Stir cooked quinoa and diced tomatoes into the mixture; bring to a simmer and cook long enough for the flavors to meld, about 10 minutes more.
