Quinoa With Chicken Asparagus And Red Peppers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill or broiler. Season chicken to taste with salt and pepper, and lightly brush with olive oil. Grill or broil, skinside down first, about 10 minutes per side.
• Melt butter in a medium skillet over moderate heat. Cook onions with salt and pepper until soft and clear. Add garlic and paprika, and cook an additional minute, stirring constantly. Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook, uncovered, about 5 minutes.
• Place chicken over individual beds of bulgur wheat, rice or pasta. Ladle on sauce and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a blender or food processor, combine all the olives, parsley, capers, thyme, and anchovies. Process until mixture forms a thick paste. Place chicken on prepared baking sheet. Top only 4 of the 8 chicken pieces with the olive tapenade mixture. Season the other 4 of the 8 chicken pieces with salt and pepper, to taste. Wrap garlic cloves in foil and place alongside chicken. Roast chicken and garlic for 25 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and garlic cloves are golden brown and tender.
• Meanwhile, cook quinoa according to package directions. When liquid is absorbed, fold in red peppers, about 1/3 of the roasted garlic cloves and basil and season, to taste, with salt and black pepper.
• Serve half of the chicken and all of the quinoa with this meal and reserve extra chicken and extra garlic cloves for future meals.

Steps:

• In a large mug or small bowl, combine the oil and red onion. Microwave until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken, quinoa, beans, salsa, cumin, chili powder and salt and pepper to taste then stir and microwave for another minute or two. Serve with toppings of your choice.

Steps:

• Put a rimmed baking sheet on the lowest oven rack and preheat to 425 degrees F. Toss the potatoes and garlic cloves with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl; set aside.
• Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken; cook until browned, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to the hot baking sheet. Scatter the potatoes and garlic around the chicken; reserve the bowl. Bake until the chicken is just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and tent with foil; leave the potatoes and garlic on the baking sheet.
• Add the asparagus and tomatoes to the reserved bowl; toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add to the baking sheet with the potatoes. Bake until the vegetables are tender and the tomatoes start to burst, 13 to 15 minutes.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven; switch the oven to broil. Toss the parmesan, parsley and lemon zest in a small bowl. Nestle the chicken in the vegetables and sprinkle everything with the parmesan mixture. Broil until golden, 1 to 2 minutes.
