For the chicken: Preheat your grill to 400 F. While the grill is heating make a simple marinade for your chicken by combining a splash of olive oil, salt and pepper in a shallow bowl.

5
Add the coconut milk and the quinoa into a sauce pot.
6
Bring it to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer for 15 minutes to cook.

While the quinoa cooks, add the Earth Balance butter to a pan and heat over medium heat.

Once the butter has melted add your mushrooms.
9
Cook low and slow for 5-7 minutes.
10
Add the soy sauce for extra flavor.
11
When the quinoa is cooked, add it to your mushrooms.
12
Add a dash of salt and pepper, a splash of half of a lime and stir to combine.
13
For the peanut tofu sauce: Combine your peanut butter, tofu, minced garlic clove, hot sauce and a splash of rice wine vinegar in the food processor.
14
Blend until smooth and creamy.
15
For the assembly: When your chicken is cooked, shred it with two forks or you can cut it into strips.
