Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Season the chicken breasts with Ras el Hanout and half of the olive oil, ensuring they are well-coated.
Step 2
Place the chicken on a baking tray and roast for 25-30 minutes until cooked through.
Step 3
Let it rest before slicing.
Step 4
While the chicken is roasting, rinse the quinoa under cold water. Cook it in a pot with 2 cups of water over medium heat until it absorbs all the water.
Step 5
Chop the onion and garlic. Sauté them in the remaining olive oil in a pan until golden brown.
Step 6
Add the cooked quinoa, chopped figs, and pistachios to the pan. Season with salt and pepper, and stir well to combine.
Step 7
Serve the sliced chicken on a bed of quinoa salad. Garnish with extra pistachios if desired.
