3-Ingredient Salsa Verde Chicken with Quinoa

(serves 4)

• 4 medium bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
• Freshly ground pepper
• 1 cup dry quinoa
• 1 x 15 oz. (425 g) jar salsa verde

Preheat your oven to 400°F/200ºC. Heat a large, oven-safe pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with pepper. Place the chicken skin side down in the pan and lower the heat to medium. 

Let the chicken cook for 4-5 minutes, until the skin is crispy and most of the fat has rendered. Remove the chicken from the pan – leaving the fat – and set aside.

Add the quinoa to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly to combine it with the rendered fat. 

Pour in the salsa verde and ½ cup (120 ml) water and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and place the chicken, skin side up, on top.

Place the pan in the oven to bake for 20-25 minutes. It’s done when the liquid is absorbed, the quinoa is fluffy, and the chicken is cooked through

Serve and enjoy!
