The targeted nutrition in this “fried rice” inspired D-Burn recipe will help you make the enzymes your body needs to eliminate the excess fat in the hip, belly and butt area that’s causing your clothes to fit a little snug. Plus, protein feeds the liver. Your body converts this macronutrient into amino acids that drive your metabolic rate. This recipe is both, delicious and therapeutic.

D-Burn | Serves 4 |
Prep time: 15 minutes | Total time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 carrots, thinly sliced
2 cups green beans, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
1 medium red bell pepper, cored, seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 clove garlic, sliced
1 small red chile, chopped (optional; you can sub 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes)
12 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
2 cups cooked sprouted quinoa
1 egg, beaten
2 scallions, chopped
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
