Step 3
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic, sauté until translucent.
Step 4
Add marinated chicken to the pan, cook until the chicken is browned on all sides.
Step 5
Add quinoa to the pan, pour in 2 cups of water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes.
Step 6
Once quinoa is cooked and water is absorbed, fluff with a fork. Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
