Filet each chicken breast in half, so now you have 6 pieces of chicken. And place in the large mixing bowl with the Sweet Maple Barbecue Sauce.
Cover the bowl of chicken with foil or plastic wrap and set in the refrigerator, marinate the chicken for 1-2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimed baking sheet with tin foil and aside.
Arrange the chicken on the baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake in the oven for 25-35 minutes or until chicken is cooked all the way through.
While chicken is baking, prepare quinoa.
In a medium sauce pan bring the 4 cups of chicken broth to a boil.
Stir in quinoa and bring back to a boil. Reduce heat to a medium and cover with a lid. And cook covered over reduced heat for 12 minutes.
Once quinoa is cooked, remove from heat and fluff. Put quinoa into a medium bowl and allow it to cool.
Once chicken is completely cooked, dice into 1 inch cubes.
Cook corn.
You can use frozen, canned or fresh, it is a personal choice. I used frozen corn and heated according to package directions.
Chop up cilantro and shred cheese.
Prepare quinoa bowls - add 1/2 -1 cup cooked quinoa, 1/2 -1 cup diced chicken, 1/3 - 2/3 cup cooked corn, garnish with cheese and cilantro. Serve immediately.
If you are packing these for lunches, adjust serving size according to who is eating these. I have a small, medium and large containers - one for my younger kids, my older kids and the hubby and I.
Place the lids on each of the containers and store for 2-3 days in the refrigerator. These Baked Barbecue Chicken & Quinoa Bowls can be reheated to serve warm or be devoured cold. Either way enjoy!
