Nutritional values

Quinoa gets points for vital amino acids and complex carbohydrate points. The pseudocereal thus scores as a muscle booster and energy booster and represents a refined breading for gluten-free chicken nuggets.

Gluten-free chicken nuggets not only taste great together with beans, but can also be combined with other vegetables. How about broccoli, cauliflower or creamy pumpkin puree?

Preparation steps

1.

Wash quinoa in a colander and drain. Cook in salted water over low heat for 15-20 minutes. Drain and leave to cool in a bowl.

2.

Meanwhile, wash beans and cook in boiling salted water for 12-15 minutes, then drain and cool. Meanwhile, peel onion and cut into thin strips. Mix beans, onion, vinegar and walnut oil with 1 pinch of salt as well as some pepper and let stand.

3.

Beat eggs in a deep dish. Put flour in another deep plate. Wash chicken, pat dry and cut into pieces. Season with a little salt and turn first in buckwheat flour, then in beaten eggs. Finally, coat with quinoa.

4.

Heat oil in a large skillet. Fry gluten-free chicken nuggets on both sides over medium heat for 6-10 minutes, depending on thickness.

5.

Wash parsley, shake dry, pluck leaves and chop finely. Drain gluten-free chicken nuggets on paper towels and sprinkle with parsley. Serve bean salad separately.
