♥Healthy Sweet & Spicy "Fire" Chicken on Quinoa w/Edamame Drizzled in Soy Sauce! YUMMY!

I LOVE spicy food and what a better way to make chicken and add some sweetness to it! This recipe is to die for! A lot of sweet and a little spicy "fire" kick to it! This time instead of that carb loaded rice; try my sweet quinoa recipe! Makes a perfect fit with this sweet meal :) YUMMY!! Enjoy this one! Here is goes :) 
Healthy Sweet & Spicy "Fire" Chicken on Sweet Quinoa (Serves 2 People): 
2 Boneless Chicken Breasts
3 Cloves of Garlic
1 Can of Chunky Pineapple Fruit
1/2 Cup Soy Sauce
1 Tbs. Chili Garlic Sauce
1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Cup of Plain Quinoa
1 Cup of Chicken Broth
1 Cup of Pineapple Juice
Directions:
  • Mix chopped garlic cloves, 1/2 can of chunky pineapple w/juice, chili garlic sauce, soy sauce & brown sugar in bowl. Mix well. Add sliced chicken, coat and cover, & refrigerate for at least 1 hour (the longer the more flavor).
  • 1 hour later.... in a large saucepan cook chicken until well done. I drained some of the juice from the bowl and then poured everything into the pan and cooked it. Add some more juice & pineapple from the rest of the can if you want to. 
  • Add hot water to 1 medium pan and turn on high to boil (for the edamame). 
  • In another pan add 1 cup of quinoa, 1 cup of chicken broth & 1 cup of pineapple juice. Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is soaked up well.
  • All three items are cooking at the same time... Drain the edamame and season with sea salt & drizzle a little soy sauce on top! YUMMY!
  • Place the quinoa on the plate and top with the chicken  and pineapple. The taste together is amazing! My husband LOVED it! !
So sweet and a little spicy!! AND under 400 calories for the whole meal! MMMmmmm MMMmmmm
