Steps:
- Bring chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan. Stir quinoa into the broth and bring again to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and broth has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Stir scallions and 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice into the quinoa.
- Mix paprika, cumin, onion powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and sea salt together in a small bowl; rub onto chicken breasts to season completely.
- Prepare a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.
- Lay chicken breasts into the hot skillet, cover skillet with a lid, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Blend avocado, yogurt, 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice, and garlic powder in a food processor until smooth.
- Spread quinoa onto a serving platter. Arrange chicken breasts onto the platter. Drizzle avocado cream sauce over the chicken breasts.

Steps:
- For the blackened chicken: Combine all the spices with the garlic and oil in a bowl. Evenly rub the chicken pieces with the spice mixture. Place in a large re-sealable plastic bag or a bowl covered in plastic wrap. Keep in the refrigerator for 1 hour or up to overnight for a more intense flavor.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a cast-iron skillet heat over high heat, add enough vegetable oil to coat the whole bottom of the pan. The pan will be ready when it starts to gently smoke. First place the chicken drumsticks in the skillet (they take the longest to cook) and blacken all sides, about 5 minutes. Add the rest of the chicken pieces and continue in the same manner for another 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and place the skillet in the oven for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, set aside and keep warm.
- For the French vinaigrette: Add the tomato soup, ketchup, vinegar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, mustard seeds, shallot, garlic and lemon juice to a blender and puree all the ingredients together. Slowly add the oil until it emulsifies and becomes thick and creamy. Season with salt and pepper and blend again. (Add a little bit of water if the vinaigrette is too thick.) Store in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator. The vinaigrette can be made ahead and will be good for up to 1 week.
- For the salad: In a bowl, mix together the romaine lettuce with the red onions, 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the red wine vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the chicken thighs from the skillet, slice lengthwise and toss into the salad. Mix well and set aside.
- In another bowl, mix together the radishes, herbs and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- To serve: Dress the plates with the romaine and chicken thigh salad mix. Top each plate with a blackened chicken drumstick and garnish with the radish salad. Drizzle with the French vinaigrette and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. At the same time, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
- Coat chicken with 1 tablespoon oil and season with blackened seasoning.
- Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- At the same time, add farfalle to the boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
- While the farfalle is cooking, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add asparagus tips and sun-dried tomatoes; saute until asparagus is tender, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and cover until wilted, about 1 minute. Stir to combine and transfer to a bowl. Wipe the skillet clean.
- Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add cream and cooking wine and cook, whisking constantly, for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add 1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese and garlic; stir until cheese is melted. Add asparagus mixture to the sauce and stir to combine.
- Drain pasta, place in a serving bowl, and pour sauce over top. Slice chicken and place on top of pasta. Sprinkle additional Parmesan on top.
