Krimon loves Simias

"Krimon warms the heart of Simias"
This personal revelation is one of several lines of graffiti that constitute one of the earliest known uses of the Greek alphabet! (Both Simias and Krimon are male names.) The inscriptions were found in recent years on rocks and boulders at the site of the sanctuary of Apollo Karneios (Horned Apollo). You just never know what you will learn here!
 


This sweet chicken dish uses one of the most healthy foods: quinoa. If you are not brave enough to try, you can always use rice and just never experience the joys of modern cuisine.


Ingredients
  • ½ cup quinoa (4 oz.)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 15 ounce can Peach halves in light syrup
  • 1 tsp. Sweat paprika
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 green onions

Directions:





In a covered sauce pan, cook ½ cup of quinoa in the cup of broth over a medium heat Let this cook for about 20 minutes until liquid is absorbed.




Drain peach halves, reserving ½ cup syrup.

Slave serves this with some roasted fresh broccoli:



Meanwhile, sprinkle chicken with salt, pepper and ½ teaspoon paprika. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; cook for 4 minutes per side or until no longer pink (170 degrees F). Add peaches the last 2 minutes. Transfer to platter and cover with foil.


While that is cooking: dice the green pepper, use about ½ cup and freeze the rest! Cut green tops of 2 onions into diagonal slices; set aside; chop remaining onions. When chicken is removed mix the onions and green pepper into the skillet and let cook for 1 – 2 minutes until fragrant.




Stir the reserved syrup into the quinoa along with the onions & green pepper. Have a small bowl of the onion tops for garnish.


Sprinkle some dried cranberries for color!
 
 
 Makes 4 servings.

Now how about something different for our music?
