harissa kip met quinoa

I love quinoa; I find it one of the best grains (technically not a grain!) out there and I recently discovered black and red quinoa in the ecological supermarket here, so I’ll be making things with that soon! For now this is a quick and easy dish. I am a fan of  harissa and because it’s quite simple to make yourself I would recommend that, if you cannot find it in your supermarket. It’s worth the trouble and it keeps for very long so if you make a jar it will last you a while!

Quinoa with harissa chicken

Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 250 g chicken filet
  • 2 teaspoons harissa paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika powder
  • 150 g quinoa
  • 1 courgette zucchini, cut into cubes
  • 100 g chestnut mushrooms cut into slices
  • 2-3 sprigs thyme leaves only
  • 2 leaves sage chopped finely
  • 2 tablespoons chives chopped
  • 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds roasted
  • salt
  • pepper
  • olive oil

Instructions

  • Rub the harissa on the chicken filets and sprinkle some of the smoked paprika over it. Don't overdo it as the smoky flavor can be quite overpowering.
  • Heat a griddle or frying pan and bake your chicken. Be careful as the harissa tends to spatter a bit
  • Put a pot of boiling water on and add 1 cube of chicken stock. Once boiling add your quinoa and cook for about 15minutes or according to package instructions.
  • Heat a frying pan with oil and bake your courgette first. Once they start to soften, add the mushrooms and the thyme leaves as well as the sage.
  • Roast your sunflower seeds in another (dry) pan
  • Drain the quinoa once cooked and add the baked courgette and mushrooms to it. Be sure to check the seasoning and add salt and pepper where needed. Add the sunflower seeds. Slice your chicken and drape over the quinoa. Sprinkle with chives.

  • 150 gr quinoa
  • 1 courgette in blokjes gesneden

  • zout
  • peper
  • olijfolie

Instructions

  • Wrijf de kipfilets in met harissa en strooi er een beetje van de gerookte paprika poeder overheen. let op dat je hier niet teveel van gebruikt want de rooksmaak is snel overheersend.
  • Verhit een grilpan of koekenpan en bak je kipfilet. Let op want de harissa spat nog wel eens.
  • Breng water aan de kook en voeg 1 bouilonblokje eraan toe. Zodra het kookt voeg je de quinoa toe en laat dit koken voor ongeveer 15 minuten of volgens de instructies op de verpakking.
  • Verhit een koekenpan en bak de courgette eerst. Zodra deze een beetje zacht begint te worden voeg je de paddestoelen en de tijm toe en als laatste de salie.
  • Rooster je zonnebloempitjes in een andere (droge) pan
  • Zodra de quinoa gaar is, laat je die uitlekken en voeg je de gebakken courgette en paddestoelen toe. Check of er genoeg zout en peper in zit en voeg toe indien nodig. Roer de zonnebloempitjes erdoor.
  • Snij je kipfilet in plakjes en leg over de quinoa. Bestrooi met bieslook.
