| 75g Quinoa — Rinsed | |
| 1 Chicken Breast — Skinless | |
| 16 x 22cm Round Rice Paper Sheets | |
| 4 Mint Sprigs — Leaves Only | |
| 1 Red Pepper — Finely Sliced | |
| 1 Courgette — Julienned | |
| 1 Avocado — Sliced | |
| 2 Spring Onions — Finely Shredded | |
| Juice of 1 Lime | |
| **For the Satay Sauce** | |
| 2 tbps Peanut Butter | |
| 1.5 tsp Soy Sauce | |
| 1 tsp Agave Syrup or Honey | |
| Pinch Dried Chili Flakes | |
| 1 tsp Rice Vinegar | |
| 1/2 tsp Ginger — Freshly Grated |
| 1. | Cook the quinoa in a small pan of boiling water according to the packet instructions. Drain and leave to one side to cool. |
| 2. | Poach the chicken breast in a medium saucepan of hot simmering water for 15 minutes. Once cooked, remove the breast from the water and leave to cool. |
| 3. | In the meantime, make the satay sauce; mix together all the ingredients in a small bowl with a fork and let down with a teaspoon at a time of warm water until you reach a dipping consistency (approximately 5–7 teaspoons of water). The mixture will look like it’s splitting at first, but if you slowly mix it with a fork it will come together and thicken as you mix. Taste and adjust the flavours as necessary. |
| 4. | Once the chicken has cooled, tear the breast into thin strips. |
| 5. | To make the rolls, place a rice paper sheet in a bowl of warm water for about 10–15 seconds, or until soft and pliable. Place it on a chopping board, then put a mint leaf in the centre and top with a couple of pieces of red pepper, courgette, avocado and spring onion. Add a tablespoon of the cooked quinoa and a couple of strips of chicken, then drizzle a little lime juice over the top. |
| 6. | Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then, rolling from the bottom, using your fingers to keep the filling tightly encased, roll up tightly into a spring roll shape and repeat with the remaining ingredients. |
| 7. | Serve the rolls with the dipping sauce on the side. |
