This idea is perfect for kids; they are breaded nuggets made with quinoa and baked. Quinoa contains omega 3, which helps improve hyperactivity in children.

Preheat the oven to 200°C. In a pot, heat the water until it boils. Add salt and quinoa, cook on low heat covered until cooked and the liquid has been absorbed. Let it rest for 5 minutes before uncovering. Mix in the oregano and set aside. Season the chicken breast cubes with salt and pepper. Place flour, beaten egg, and quinoa with oregano in three bowls. Bread the chicken by passing it through flour, egg, and quinoa, and place on a baking tray. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping to brown evenly. Serve.
