Chicken and Quinoa Stir-Fry

I was trying to make a simple, healthy dish but simple went out the window when I started throwing everything that I found in the fridge into this dish. If you don't have all the ingredients for this dish, you can simplify it by grabbing a bag of frozen stir fry veggies.

Chicken and Quinoa Stir-Fry
Ingredients

• 2 oz (56 g) diced red bell pepper
• 1/4 med red onion, finely chopped (1.8 oz/ 52 g)
• 1 med sweet potato, chopped (8.7 oz/ 248 g)
• 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
• 4.4 oz (124 g) baby bella mushrooms, quartered

• 10 oz (283 g) chicken breast, diced

Procedure

1. Cook the onion and the mushrooms in a wok or a large pan with the olive oil.
2. Add the sweet potatoes, ground ginger, and soy sauce in the pan or wok. Cook until sweet potatoes have begun to soften.
3. Add the chicken and the broccoli to the wok or pan. Cook until chicken is no longer pink and the broccoli is no longer frozen.
4. Finally add the red pepper and the quinoa into the wok or pan and stir until well-mixed and warm.
