Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked quinoa

1 lb chicken breast, diced

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow bell pepper, sliced

1 medium red onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for spice level)

1 teaspoon chili powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 avocado, sliced

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, combine diced chicken, olive oil, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.

    Roast Peppers: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss sliced red and yellow bell peppers with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred.

      Cook Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add marinated chicken and cook for 7-10 minutes, or until its fully cooked and golden brown. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

        Sauté Onions: In the same skillet, remove the chicken and add the diced red onion. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, until translucent. Combine the chicken back in the skillet with the onions.

          Assemble Bowls: Divide the cooked quinoa into bowls. Top with the spicy chicken and sautéed onions, followed by the roasted bell peppers and sliced avocado.

            Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle fresh cilantro over the top and serve with lime wedges for a zesty finish. You can also drizzle some olive oil if desired.
