Easy Peasy Chicken dinner- quinoa style.

If you liked my cheesy quinoa and cauliflower recipe, or if you liked my Easy Peasy chicken dinner this one sorta combines them. It was SO good  Seriously comfort food to the max and not bad health wise!

2 chicken breasts chopped into chunks
1 cup quinoa
2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 head broccoli chopped
1 package Philadelphia Cream Cheese Cooking Cream (i used herb and garlic but any would work)
1 tbsp olive oil 
1/4 cup water

Get your broth boiling in a pot and add your quinoa.  Simmer for 5 minutes then cover and set aside.
 
In a large non stick sauce pan/skillet add oil and chicken.  Cook until mostly done. Add broccoli, 1/4 cup water and turn down.  Cook for a couple minutes until broccoli is starting to soften and turn bright green.

Add the Philly Cream sauce, mix in the Quinoa.

Serve!
