Instructions
- Bring chicken broth and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside.
- Heat 1 ½ teaspoons coconut oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken; stir until cooked through; about 5 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Heat remaining 1 ½ teaspoons coconut oil in the wok. Add carrots, cabbage, edamame, green onions, and broccoli stems; sauté until vegetables soften slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Whisk eggs and 1 teaspoon sesame oil together in a small bowl. Push vegetables to sides of wok to make a well in the center. Pour in eggs; stir to scramble, about 3 minutes.
- Combine peanut butter, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, chili garlic sauce, ginger, garlic, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil together in a small bowl; pour over vegetables and egg mixture in wok.
- Return chicken to wok; stir in quinoa until combined. Stir in chopped peanuts and cilantro; serve.
