Method:
- Rinse the quinoa, put it in the pot and pour a full cup of water over it.
- While the quinoa is cooking, fry the courgettes chopped into rounds on 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- After 5 minutes, add the diced chicken, that you have
salted beforehand, into the pan. Add a bit of chicken stock or water and let it simmer over medium heat. - Finally, add spinach into the pan, and let it wilt. Add more salt, if needed.
