Steps to Make Chickpea and Quinoa Chicken Breast Salad
These are the ingredients: chickpeas soaked overnight, which will increase in size by 1.5-2 times; quinoa soaked in water for a while.
Boil the chickpeas and quinoa together in a pot of water with some salt for 12-15 minutes.
Cut the chicken breast into small pieces, add a few drops of olive oil, a little salt, and some black pepper to marinate.
Blanch the marinated chicken breast in a pot of cold water for a few minutes, then remove from the pot.
Heat a little olive oil in a pan, add the blanched chicken breast, and stir-fry for 2 minutes until the chicken turns slightly yellow.
Add the boiled chickpeas and quinoa to the pan, add a little water, and cook for 1 minute.
Squeeze some lime juice over the salad and add a little salt to taste before serving.
