One refreshing starter
I'm really into the Martiniquian way of cooking at the moment. The mix of traditional French cuisine and the refreshing tropical creole (a mélange of French, Spanish and African) style of preparing food makes for a perfect mix and the fresh ingredients makes the food light to savour in during hot days. Coco, rum, bananas of all different types, lime and other fruits are often a part of the cuisine here and this is a little something I threw together with inspiration from the local kitchen.
Lime and coco chicken with ecological quinoa
Boil quinoa according to package instructions. I use the ecological version found at Carrefour.
Pan fry very finely chopped spring onion in tiny bit of butter and when crispy - throw in some chicken and fry until golden, pour in a tiny bit of dark rum (rum goes with most things I've recently discovered, especially fish and most definitely in desserts.) add salt, pepper, a squeeze of lime-juice. When quinoa's done, mix it all into the pan. Serve with or without coco flakes and enjoy as a starter or main course.
Enjoy!
