Cooking Instructions

Step 1
Rub the Chicken Breasts (3) with the Garlic (4 cloves) , Dried Sage (as needed) and Salt (to taste) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) .
Step 2
Place in a bowl or baking dish with juice from Lemons (2) and Red Wine Vinegar (45 mL) . Cover and refrigerate for at least a half-hour​.
Step 3
Place the Quinoa (125 g) and Water (360 mL) in a sauce pan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cover. After 15 minutes, the quinoa should absorb all the water and be al dente. Place in a bowl to cool.
Step 4
When the chicken is ready, grill it until completely cooked through. About 6 minutes each, turning every few minutes for even cooking.
Step 5
Whisk the Olive Oil (30 mL) , Balsamic Vinegar (45 mL) , Honey (20 g) , 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and Salt (to taste) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) in a bowl. Stir in the Scallions (15 g) to coat them and add flavor.
Step 6
When the chicken is cool enough to handle, chop it into 1-inch cubes.
Step 7
Toss the chicken with quinoa. Dried Cranberries (90 g) , Slivered Almonds (80 g) , scallion and dressing. Add Salt (to taste) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) .
Step 8
Serve and enjoy!
