Ingredients

  • 2 portions of chicken broth
  • 1 portion of quinoa
  • A dash of salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 spoons of olive oil
  • Freshly chopped green bell pepper
  • Chopped yellow onion
  • Chopped zucchinis
  • Minced garlic
  • Freshly chopped broccoli
  • Halved grape tomatoes
  • Boneless, chopped rotisserie chicken
  • A package of crumbled goat cheese
  • Sliced avocado
  • Freshly squeezed lemon juice

Step 1

In a saucepan, bring the delightful combination of chicken broth and quinoa to a gentle boil, unleashing a symphony of flavors. Let it simmer, covered, over a medium-low heat until the quinoa reaches a delightful tenderness, painting a picture of perfection that takes about 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle in a touch of salt and pepper to elevate the taste.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in another pan, let a drizzle of olive oil dance gracefully over low heat until it shimmers like a starry night. Toss in the vibrant bell pepper and onion, letting them mingle and saute for a brief 1 to 2 minutes. Then, crank up the heat to medium-high, introducing the zucchinis and garlic to the aromatic affair, sauteing until they just begin to soften and the onion turns into a translucent beauty, a process that usually takes around 5 to 7 minutes. Add the broccoli to the mix, sauteing until it exudes a cheerful bright green hue. Season this medley of veggies with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Toss in the tomatoes, allowing them to sizzle and soften for around 5 minutes until they start to crinkle with tenderness. Finally, add the chicken to warm through, infusing the dish with another layer of wholesome goodness over the next 5 minutes.

Step 3

Divide the fluffy quinoa into 6 charming bowls, each one a canvas ready to be adorned with the delightful sauteed veggies. Crown this masterpiece with a sprinkle of goat cheese, slices of creamy avocado, and a generous drizzle of fresh lemon juice, transforming it into a culinary work of art that tantalizes the taste buds.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your chicken, quinoa, and vegetables stored separately in airtight containers to maintain freshness and prevent flavors from mingling.
  2. 2. Pre-portion your ingredients into individual serving sizes for easy grab-and-go lunches throughout the week.
