Learn how to cook "Chicken salad with quinoa, oranges and avocado". Delicious recipe.

Required products :

  • 170 grams of quinoa
  • 360 milliliters of water
  • 400 grams of chicken fillet
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 roasted garlic cloves
  • 2 oranges
  • 1 avocado
  • red pepper, salt, green spices

For the dressing:

  • 30 milliliters of lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 dessert spoon of honey

 

Method of preparation :

Wash the quinoa, fill it with cold water and place on the stove at medium temperature. Once it boils, reduce the heat and cook for 25 minutes, stirring in the meantime. When you turn off the stove, add salt to the beans, stir and close the pan with a lid.

Roast a head of garlic (you will need 2 cloves for the salad). To do this, first cut the bottom, salt the incision and dip it in 1 tablespoon of olive oil, which pour into a "cup" made of aluminum foil. With the latter, wrap the garlic and place it in the oven at 190 degrees for about 30 minutes. When cool, separate 2 cloves.

In the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, fry the finely chopped chicken fillet (pre-salt it and sprinkle with paprika) until a beautiful yellow crust forms on the surface of the pieces (it takes about 10 minutes).

 

Peel and peel the oranges and cut them into pieces with a sharp knife. Remove the avocado stone, peel it and cut into medium pieces. Mash the garlic cloves with a knife, chop the green spices.

In a suitable bowl, mix the meat with the quinoa, add the fruit, garlic, green spices, stir and leave the combination for the moment.

Prepare the dressing by mixing citrus juice with olive oil and sweeten with a spoonful of honey. Pour this sauce over the salad, stir once more and you can serve.

 

Have a good time!
