Cook the Quinoa
Rinse 1 cup of wild Korean quinoa under cold water. In a saucepan, add the rinsed quinoa and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 15-20 minutes or until the quinoa is cooked and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

If using grilled chicken breast, season with salt and pepper and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Slice the chicken breast if using.
