Cooking steps

Cook the Quinoa
1
  • Rinse the quinoa in cold water until it runs clear.
  • In a medium pot, boil 250ml of lightly salted water (per 2P).
  • Add the quinoa and stock, reduce the heat to medium-high, cover and cook for 4-5 mins.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, covered, a further 8-10 mins. 
  • Remove from the heat, set aside, and cover to keep warm.
Prep the Veg
2
  • While the quinoa cooks, halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.
  • Cut the tomato into 2cm chunks.
  • Trim and thinly slice the scallion.
Mix the Mayo
3
  • Add the mayo, harissa paste and sweet chilli sauce to a small bowl.
  • Mix together until well combined.
Sear the Chicken
4
  • Place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Slice through the chicken breast to make thin steaks and season with harissa spice, salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Once the oil is hot, fry the chicken until browned, 3-6 mins each side.
Fry the Veg
5
  • Once the chicken is cooked to your liking, transfer to a board, cover and allow to rest.
  • Return the pan to high heat with another drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the pepper and tomatoes with the paprika until starting to soften, stirring occasionally, 3-4 mins.
  • Stir the drained quinoa into the veg. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Finish and Serve
