Ingredients
  

Ingredients:

  • 1 5-6 lb. chicken cut into eighths
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 2 Tbsp. paprika
  • 1 Tbsp. garlic powder
  • 2 Tbsp. oil
  • 2 cups white quinoa
  • 5 cups water
  • 1 Tbsp. oil
  • 1.5 lb sugar snap peas
  • salt and black pepper to season

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 425º. Place chickens on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and coat the outside of the chicken in spices and oil. Roast for 45-55 minutes uncovered until cooked through and golden brown. Cover with aluminum foil to let the chicken rest and keep warm before serving.
  • To make the quinoa, in a medium (pareve) pot mix together quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer until the water is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Uncover and fluff with a fork. Move half the quinoa to a storage container. Let cool to room temperature before storing it in the fridge.
  • For the sautéed snap peas, heat the oil in a (pareve or meat) pan and add the snap peas. Sauté until cooked through, but still bright green. Season with salt. Remove half to a storage container and store for later use.
  • Once all the ingredients are ready, serve them together on a plate, or serve the quinoa and snap peas separately in a small bowl and enjoy.
