I am a wimp when it comes to spice. Okay, I'm a wimp when it comes to other things, too. I can't handle scary movies. Or books. I freak out when I see a cockroach. I can't lift heavy things. But, in this case, my wimpy-ness came up because I can't handle buffalo chicken.
Since we have both fallen in love with quinoa, I decided to make him his very own quinoa bites - chock full of chicken, cheese, and burn-your(or maybe just my)-mouth-off hot sauce.
Makes ~24 Bites
Ingredients:
1 cup cooked quinoa
1 large egg
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 cup finely chopped cooked chicken
1/4 cup buffalo sauce (we used Frank's) or to taste
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1/2 tsp minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix together all ingredients.
3. Distribute mixture into a greased mini muffin tin, filling each cup to the top (1 heaping Tbs each), and press down gently to compact.
4. Bake for 25-30 minutes.
