10 mins Prep
20 mins Cook
4 Serves
- Cook quinoa according to pack instructions. Drain and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, heat a char-grill pan over medium-high heat and cook corn for 10 minutes, turning often, until slightly charred. Once cool enough to handle, remove kernels from corn.
- Meanwhile, sprinkle chicken with Moroccan seasoning. Spray a large non-stick frying pan with olive oil and cook chicken for 4–5 minutes each side over medium-high heat, or until cooked through. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes. Thickly slice chicken.
- In a large bowl, combine quinoa, corn, chickpeas, asparagus, parsley and mint.
- In a screwtop jar, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest and mustard. Shake well to combine.
- Drizzle quinoa salad mix with dressing and toss to coat. Top with chicken and sprinkle with feta to serve.
