Ingredients

  • ½ cup Thai style chili sauce (see notes)
  • ½ cup water or chicken broth
  • ¼ cup Wholesome!® Organic Blue Agave
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons Wholesome!® Organic Light Brown Sugar
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 cups uncooked quinoa
  • chopped peanuts, cilantro, and chili flakes for topping

Directions

  • Sauce: Whisk all the sauce ingredients together. Set aside about ½ cup sauce to marinade the chicken. In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the sauce to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 30 minutes or so until the sauce has thickened.
  • Quinoa: Cook according to package directions.
  • Chicken: Place the chicken in a bag or bowl with the reserved ½ cup sauce to marinate. Return to the refrigerator and let it all hang out for 30 minutes or so, while the sauce thickens. Shake off excess marinade and transfer to a hot grill pan or skillet. Let the chicken cook for a few minutes on each side, until no longer pink, brushing periodically with the thickened sauce.
  • Serving: Plate the quinoa on a large platter and top with the chicken. Brush the whole thing with extra sauce. Sprinkle with cilantro, peanuts, and chili flakes.
  • Serves: 4-6
