While chicken thighs are quick and convenient, you might substitute halved bone-in chicken breasts in their place.
Chicken thighs are tender and flavorful, but chicken breast or leftover chicken will work well too.
For the best results, we recommend using refrigerated pesto for its fresh flavor which enhances the overall dish.

As the quinoa absorbs water and cooks, it creates the perfect amount of steam for cooking the broccoli.
The broccoli is crisp-tender and adds texture to contrast with the creamy, cheesy quinoa.
Swap in tricolor quinoa, if you prefer.
