Ingredients

  • 1 lbs (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into chunks
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) of paprika
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) of ground black pepper
  • 2 cups (500 mL) of shredded carrots
  • 2 cups (500 mL) of shredded zucchini
  • 1 cup (250 mL) of portobello mushrooms, diced
  • 1 cup (250 mL) of button mushrooms, diced
  • 2 cups (500 mL) of prepared Instant Chicken Soup Base, Gluten-Free, Sodium Reduced
  • 1 lemon's juice
  • 1 lemon's zest
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) of fresh rosemary leaves, chopped

Preparation

  • Heat large non-stick skillet at medium-high heat. Add chicken and sprinkle with paprika and pepper. Brown well on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside.
  • Add carrot, zucchini, and all mushrooms. Cook and stir until tender – about 3 minutes. Return chicken to skillet.
  • Stir in broth, lemon juice, zest and rosemary. Heat to a boil. Stir in quinoa. Reduce heat to low.
  • Cover and simmer until quinoa has absorbed almost all liquid and chicken is cooked through – about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
