INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Quinoa Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 medium Zucchini
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and the oven to 400°F (205°C).
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Grill for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked. Once done, let it rest and then slice into strips.
Chop the red bell pepper, zucchini, and halve the cherry tomatoes. Toss the red bell pepper, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until they are lightly caramelized and tender.
Meanwhile, cook the quinoa pasta according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa pasta, roasted vegetables, and grilled chicken.
Drizzle freshly squeezed lemon juice and remaining olive oil over the mix, and gently toss to combine all flavors.
Garnish with fresh basil and adjust seasonings to taste before serving.
