QUINOA , CHICKEN AND BLACK BEAN

Place your quinoa in the steamer , remember it`s the same ratio as for rice  1:2  ( 1 cup of rice to 2 cups of water )
Add  1/2 cup of dried black beans .
Cook 1 chopped onion and 3 cloves of garlic in a pan with a splash of rice bran oil .
Cook until soft and aromatic .
Stir this mix through the quinoa while it is cooking .

Using the same pan cook 2 sliced large chicken breasts , adding another sliced onion , slices of red and yellow capsicums and 1 red chilli with seeds ( optional ) .
Mix together 1 tsp of turmeric, 1 tsp of cumin
Add this mix to the chicken in the pan .
Stir through thoroughly.

Chop a bunch of coriander including roots along with 4 spring onions  and crumble  feta cheese to toss through the quinoa , rest the chicken on top and squeeze with lemon juice to serve.
This is a very flavoursome and healthy meal .
