Quinoa Chicken Rolls
A tasty, healthy option for Sunday dinner...or any other night of the week, for that matter.
2 Whole (or 4 half) boneless
skinless chicken breasts
1 cup cooked red quinoa
(season with 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 tsp Goya Adobo®, and 2 tsp Mrs. Dash® Tomato,
Basil, Garlic seasoning, then cooled)
2-3 cups raw baby spinach
2/3 cup sliced baby
portabella mushrooms
1/4 cup diced sweet onion
1/3 cup feta cheese
1 box Oven Fry® Extra Crispy
(chicken) mix
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1 egg
1/3 cup coconut milk
1 teaspoon lime or key lime
juice
Brine chicken in warm water
with 1 tbsp natural maple syrup and 2 tsp soy sauce for approximately 2 hours.
Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
Heat oven to 400° and spray
glass baking dish with olive oil cooking spray.
Mix seasoned cooked quinoa
with roughly chopped spinach, roughly chopped mushrooms, diced onions, and feta
cheese. Set aside.
Pound the chicken breasts to
approximately 1/2 inch thickness. Mix egg, coconut milk, and lime juice. In
separate dish, mix Oven Fry® and parmesan cheese.
Dip chicken in egg mixture,
then cover both sides with Oven Fry® mixture. Add 1-2 tbsp of the quinoa
mixture and roll the chicken breast with mixture inside. Place rolled, filled
breasts seam down in the glass baking dish. Spread remaining quinoa mixture
between/around the chicken rolls.
Bake for 25 minutes.
GREAT SIDE DISH SUGGESTION:

skillet. When hot, add diced garlic, then sauté asparagus and butternut squash.
Serve when asparagus is al dente.
