INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Broccoli
1/8 cup dry Quinoa
2 teaspoons Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, sear the chicken breast for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Remove and let rest.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for about 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred at the edges.
Meanwhile, rinse the dry quinoa thoroughly. In a small saucepan, add the quinoa and double the amount of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook until water is absorbed, about 12-15 minutes.
Plate the sliced chicken breast alongside the roasted broccoli and a serving of quinoa. Drizzle with any remaining olive oil if desired and serve immediately.
