Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9 × 13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium dish, mix together the ﬂour, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg with 2 tablespoons water.
Dip the chicken into the egg and then into the Parmesan mixture. Lightly press to generously coat each piece. Set aside.
Place the quinoa in the casserole dish and add the bell pepper, mushrooms, and onion. Then add the marinara sauce, broth, and minced garlic to the casserole dish and mix everything together.
Place the chicken thighs on top of the quinoa mixture.
If there is any remaining Parmesan mixture, evenly sprinkle it over the top of each chicken piece. Season with salt and pepper.
Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes. Then cover with foil and bake for an additional 40 minutes or until the quinoa and chicken are fully cooked. Serve.
