Ingredients:
​500g boneless skinless chicken thighs (I used chicken breast as they're a leaner cut), cut into small pieces
​2 bunches asparagus, ends trimmed
​2 tablespoons olive oil
​3/4 cup quinoa (measured uncooked), cooked
1/4 cup sundried tomatoes, drained and chopped
​1/4 cup basil pesto
​1 cup cherry tomatoes (medley colour), halved

Method:
​1. Prepare quinoa. (1.5 cup boiling water and quinoa in a saucepan.  Put lid on and bring to boil then drop to a simmer for 10mins until all water soaked up).  
​2, While quinoa cooking, heat frypan on medium heat and add olive oil.  Add chicken, pinch of salt (optional) and sundried tomatoes and cook 5-10mins until chicken cooked.  Transfer chicken and sundried tomatoes to a plate leaving oils in pan.
​3. Put asparagus in pan and cook 5-10 mins until desired tenderness.  Transfer cooked asparagus to a plate.
​4. Put chicken in pan and sundried tomato back into pan and add pesto and cooked quinoa.  Once warm, add cherry tomatoes to pan and stir to combine.  Leave on heat for a minute or two then take off heat.
5. Enjoy! :)

    Hello and Welcome!

    Picture
    Hi!  I'm Amanda and I'm so glad you found us.   We would love to help you reach (and maintain!) your health and fitness goals.

    I started She's a Knockout in 2009 after discovering for myself the life-changing benefits of healthy eating and regular exercise and becoming a qualified personal trainer and boxing instructor - I wanted to empower other women by sharing this knowledge!

    I've lost over 20kg myself and have kept it off many years and 2 kids later. 
    Along the way there's been challenges - learning about nutrition and exercise, struggling for years to fall and stay pregnant, then sustaining a healthy and active lifestyle while raising young kids. 


    I've personally selected a team of positive, empathetic, encouraging and professional female trainers to help you lose weight, get fit and feel strong, sexy and confident!  We specialise in training women in all stages of their lives, including prenatal and postnatal.
    ​
    We come to you in many locations across Perth - whether it's your home, local park, apartment gym or office.   
    We bring all the equipment and will come at a time and place that suits you.
