Instructions
1

Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F. In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper to create a marinade.

2

Rub the marinade all over the rotisserie chicken, ensuring it gets into all the crevices for maximum flavor.

3

Place the chicken in a roasting pan and cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

4

While the chicken is roasting, rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water and then combine it with 2 cups of coconut milk in a saucepan.

5

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and the liquid is absorbed.

6

For the spicy pineapple salsa, chop 1 cup of fresh pineapple, 1/4 cup of red onion, and 1 jalapeño pepper, and mix them in a bowl.

7

Add the juice of 1 lime, 1 tablespoon of chopped cilantro, and a pinch of salt to the mixture. Stir well to combine.

8

After 25 minutes, remove the foil from the chicken and roast for an additional 10 minutes to crisp the skin.

9

Once done, let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve the chicken over a bed of coconut quinoa, topped with the spicy pineapple salsa for a burst of flavor.
