Directions

  1. Bring chicken broth and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside.

  2. Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons coconut oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, stir until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken from wok. Heat remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons coconut oil. Add cabbage, edamame, broccoli, carrot, and green onions and saute until vegetables soften slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.

  3. Whisk eggs with sesame oil in a small bowl. Push vegetables to the sides of the wok to make a well in the center, pour eggs in and stir to scramble, about 3 minutes.

  4. Combine peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili garlic sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil together in a small bowl. Pour Thai peanut sauce over vegetable and egg mixture in the wok.

  5. Return chicken to the wok and add quinoa, mix well to combine. Stir in chopped peanuts and cilantro and serve.

Recipe Note

This recipe uses quinoa which is gluten-free, high in protein and fiber, and has a nice nutty flavor. But you can always substitute for either rice or noodles. Take out the chicken and add extra edamame and you have a great vegetarian meal instead. Or add shrimp if you like. A seriously good, versatile recipe!
