Pineapple Express Chicken with Quinoa



I made this dish mid-week and boy was it yummo.

1. Prep all of your ingredients: clean and chop broccoli, open one can diced pineapple, chop one shallot, 2 cloves garlic, grate a piece of fresh ginger and cut chicken into bite sized pieces.
2. Heat up a tsp of sesame oil, olive oil in a frying pan. Once hot, add shallot, garlic, ginger and chicken and brown it up.
3. Whisk a tbsp of cornstarch with about 1/2 cup soy sauce and add to pan with pineapple and juice from the can.
4. Allow to simmer, thicken and then add a tbsp brown sugar, salt and pepper.
5. Prep a pot with water and make quinoa (follow package instructions for 1 cup) add broccoli to quinoa with a few minutes remaining (you want crunchy veg!)

Make a bed of quinoa/broccoli and put your chicken on top!

Moolicious!
