Green Chicken Curry Skewers
Ingredients
- 2 bamboo skewers
- 1/4 cup raw quinoa rinsed
- 200 g chicken thigh fillets cut into cubes
- 1/2 tablespoon green curry paste
- 1/2 tablespoon water
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger minced
- 1/2 cup green peas
- 1/2 zucchini grated
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 lime juiced & zested
Instructions
- Soak the bamboo skewers in water for a minimum of 5 minutes. Ideally this could be done prior to starting the preparation and left to soak between 10-30 minutes.
- Cook quinoa according to packet instructions.
- Combine the curry paste and water, add more liquid if required. Then, coat the chicken with the curry paste and thread onto the skewers.
- Heat a grill pan over a medium heat and cook for 4 minutes each side, until cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside to rest.
- Once quinoa is cooked, add the ginger, peas, zucchini and olive oil to the pan and stir to heat through.
- Serve the quinoa on a plate and top with chicken skewers. Squeeze over lime juice to serve.
