Ingredients for Grilled Lemongrass Chicken with Red Quinoa and Vegetables

• 3 medium shallots, roughly chopped

• 2 stalks fresh lemongrass (tough outer leaves removed)

• 1 piece ginger (about 1 1/2 inches), peeled

• 60ml plus 25ml canola oil, divided

• 60ml de jugo de lima fresco

• 1 tablespoon tamari (or soy sauce)

• 2 cucharadas de azúcar moreno claro

• 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt, plus more to taste

• 1 cucharadita de pimienta negra recién molida

• 1 cucharadita de cilantro molido

• 4 boneless, skinless organic chicken breasts (about 140g each)

• 180ml red quinoa

• 350ml chicken broth (or stock)

• Aerosol de aceite vegetal para cocinar

• 450g fresh sugar snap peas, strings removed

• 1 red pepper, cored, seeded, and thinly sliced

• 2 cucharadas de menta fresca picada

Marinade: Puree shallots, lemongrass, ginger, 60ml oil, lime juice, tamari, sugar, sea salt, pepper, and coriander in a blender until smooth. Place chicken in a baking dish and spoon on marinade, rubbing it on all sides. Cover; chill 1/2 to 2 hours. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook quinoa until toasted, 3 to 4 minutes. Add broth; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until quinoa absorbs liquid, about 20 minutes. Turn off heat; let sit, covered, until ready to serve. Heat a grill pan or skillet over high heat; coat with cooking spray. Cook chicken, turning once, for 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Cook, turning once, until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove chicken; let rest two minutes. Slice each breast on the diagonal into 1/2-inch pieces. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook sugar peas and peppers until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off heat. Add mint and toss. Divide quinoa among 4 plates. Top each with 1 sliced chicken breast and 1/4 of the vegetables.
