So my friend found these dark purple green beans at the farmers market that ended up being delicious! They turned from dark purple to green as they cooked and ended up looking like tie died string beans. very cool.
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup unflavored quinoa
Purple green beans, or regular boring green beans
three cloves garlic
curry powder
lemon grass powder
cayenne pepper
olive oil
Chicken: Marinate the chicken breasts in olive oil, curry powder,lemon grass powder (use sparingly), cayenne, and salt and pepper.
Heat grill, and grill chicken breasts until done
Quinoa: Put 1 cup quinoa in a saucepan with two cups water. Add salt and pepper and any other seasonings you would add to rice or pasta. In this attempt I used a can of cream of chicken soup in addition to the water. It made it really creamy and delicious! You could also use cream of mushroom or celery. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer, cooks in about 25-30 minutes.
Green Beans: Heat olive oil in large pan. Mince garlic cloves. Place purple beans in the pan and saute. After about 5 minutes add garlic and continue to cook until done, but still crisp.
Plate and enjoy!!
loved that meal!
