INGREDIENTS
1 large Eggplant (300g)
4 oz Chicken Breast (cooked)
1 cup Cooked Quinoa (185g)
1 oz Feta Cheese (28g)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (75g)
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the eggplant in half lengthwise and score the flesh lightly, then brush with a small amount of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Roast the eggplant halves on a baking sheet for 25-30 minutes until the flesh is tender and caramelized.
Meanwhile, cook quinoa according to package instructions if not already prepared.
Dice the roasted chicken breast into small pieces. In a skillet, lightly sauté the chopped garlic and halved cherry tomatoes until fragrant, then add the chicken and cooked quinoa. Stir in chopped fresh basil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon the quinoa and chicken mixture into the cavity of the roasted eggplant halves, piling it generously.
Top each stuffed eggplant with crumbled feta cheese. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to warm the feta.
Plate the stuffed eggplant halves and garnish with extra fresh basil if desired. Enjoy your herb-roasted quinoa stuffed eggplant!
