Ingredients:
  • 1 cup (= 200g) Earth Goods Organic Quinoa, cooked
  • 1 tbsp. Earth Goods Organic High Oleic Sunflower Oil (plus extra for serving)
  • Earth Goods Fine Sea Salt and black pepper (to taste)
  • 450g chicken tenders (or skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips or cubes)
  • Juice of one lime
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp. cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp. fennel seeds
  • 1 tsp. sesame seeds (plus extra for serving)
  • 1 tsp. coriander seeds
  • 1 tbsp. cashews, crushed
  • ½ cup coriander leaves, chopped
  • ½ cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
Directions:
  • In the meantime, mix the cooked quinoa with the coriander, parsley, and scallions in a bowl. Toss and serve in a plate, place the chicken on top and sprinkle some sesame seeds with a drizzle of oil before serving. Enjoy!
  • Grind the spices (cumin, fennel, sesame, coriander seeds, and cashew nuts) in a grinder or mortar & pestle.
  • In a bowl, mix lime juice, minced garlic, spice mix, olive oil, salt and pepper.
  • Place the chicken, in a large salad bowl. Rub the marinade over the chicken and let sit for 15-20 minutes, in the meantime soak skewers in water for 10 minutes.
  • Drain chicken from the marinade and feed them onto skewers; you can either grill them or cook them in the over until golden and cooked through (about 15 minutes). TIP: To add some moisture, keep the marinade for basting at the very end and let it cook for 2-5 minutes longer while making sure you don’t burn the spices; you just want them slightly caramelized.
