Step 1
In a small bowl or, preferably, a food processor, combine the garlic, onion, thyme, salt, black pepper, and olive oil
Let it marinate well

Season the chicken with this mixture
Place it in a dish and pour the white wine over it
Let it rest for 30 minutes, covered by a cloth or aluminum foil
Step 3
In a frying pan, heat the butter and olive oil together
Add the onion and let it caramelize
Then add the carrot and salmon roe, and let it cook for a bit more
Step 4
Add the quinoa to the pan
Reduce the heat and gradually pour in the chicken broth
Season with salt, black pepper, and parsley
Mix well
When the quinoa is cooked, turn off the heat and let it cool
Step 5
Once the quinoa mixture has cooled, stuff the chicken through its rear opening
Tie the legs using kitchen twine
Place the stuffed chicken in a baking dish and cover with aluminum foil
Bake in a medium-hot oven (180°C) for about 40 minutes
Remove the foil and let it brown for another 10 minutes
Serve the quinoa-filled chicken with the cooked chicken.
