Recipe by Mendy
I threw this recipe together based off a pasta salad I liked. I wanted something with quinoa to make it a little healthier. Very delicious!
Ingredients
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, or to taste
1 cup quinoa, rinsed
2 cups chicken broth
15 fresh asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups chopped cooked chicken
12 grape tomatoes, quartered
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir quinoa until slightly toasted and water has evaporated from quinoa, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Cover saucepan, reduce heat to low, and simmer until quinoa is tender and has absorbed the broth, about 15 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and let sit for 5 minutes; fluff with a fork.
Mix quinoa, asparagus, chicken, tomatoes, basil, Parmesan cheese, and garlic together in a bowl. Drizzle 1/4 cup olive oil over salad and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes; stir until evenly coated.
