Cook the quinoa: Cook quinoa on the stove top according to package directions using chicken broth. You can also cook your quinoa in a rice cooker, or in an Instant Pot. You need about 3 cups of cooked quinoa. When your quinoa is done cooking, spread it out on a parchment paper lined baking sheet to cool quickly. You can also used leftover chilled quinoa from the fridge. Do not continue with the rest of the recipe until your quinoa has just finished cooking, so that it has time to cool.

Prep the sauce: In a small bowl or jar with lid, add soy sauce, sesame oil, and Sambal Oelek and mix well.

Cook the chicken: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the chicken breast pieces to the pan in a single layer with a pinch of salt. Let the chicken cook until browning (about 3-4 minutes), then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Ensure the chicken is fully cooked through, and then remove from the pan and set aside.

Cook the veggies: Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive or avocado oil over medium-high heat in the same pan the chicken was cooked in. Add onion, carrot and a pinch of salt, and cook until onions are beginning to turn translucent (about 3-4 minutes), stirring occasionally. Add garlic and ginger, and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant. Push the cooked veggies to the side of the pan.

Put it together: Add remaining oil to the same pan and then add the cooked quinoa in large spoonfuls. Mix with cooked vegetables in the pan, and then pour sauce mixture into the pan. Stir and continue to cook over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low-medium. Create a well in the center of the pan and pour whisked eggs into the well. Let the eggs cook for about 1 minute, or until the edges start to bubble, and then mix the eggs into the rest of the quinoa and veggies. Continue to stir until the eggs are fully cooked. Add peas and return the cooked chicken to the pan. Stir and continue to cook over low-medium heat for about 2-3 minutes until the peas are heated through.

Serve and store: Serve immediately or portion into 4 airtight meal prep containers. Store in the refrigerator and enjoy within 4 days.
