Ingredients

  • 300 grams quinoa
  • 2 large, cooked chicken breasts
  • 2 avocados
  • 4 tablespoons Greek yoghurt
  • 20 grams fresh coriander
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 2 limes
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  • Start by cooking your quinoa. Add the quinoa to a large saucepan with 600ml cold water. Bring to a simmer over a medium heat, then cook gently for 15-20 minutes until the quinoa is puffed up and soft. Leave to cool.
  • For the dressing, peel and finely chop the garlic. Chop the coriander. Put in a bowl with the juice of one lime, the olive oil and a pinch of salt. Stir and leave to one side.
  • Slice the chicken breasts. Peel and slice the avocado.
  • To serve, spoon the quinoa into bowls. Top with the sliced chicken breast and avocado. Top each bowl with a spoonful of Greek yoghurt, a drizzle of the dressing and a wedge of lime.
