Chicken Quinoa Stir Fry {low FODMAP}

Another quick and easy (but super tasty) low FODMAP dinner winner. If you are lactose intolerant be carful with the feta. I have recently lost my tolerance for digesting feta so this one is on the back burner for now while my body re-stocks. But it sure is taste sensation for our dairy loving friends! 

Serves 4

         1 cup quinoa
         2 cups (500ml) chicken stock
         4 tablespoons garlic oil, divided
         2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips
         1 zucchini, diced
         1 tomato, diced
         125g goats feta cheese
         8 fresh basil leaves
         Juice of half a lime

Rinse quinoa in a sieve until all bubbles and foam disappear.  Add chicken stock and quinoa to a saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cover.  Simmer until the broth is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy, about 12 minutes.

While quinoa is cooking, heat garlic oil in frypan and brown the chicken.

Stir the zucchini and tomato. Cook until the zucchini is tender.

Sprinkle with crumbled feta, basil leaves and lime juice. 
(If you don't have fresh basil on hand dried basil can substitute).

Continue to cook until well combined.  Serve over hot quinoa.
