INGREDIENTS
125 grams Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (approx 92g)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/3 cup Cucumber (diced)
6 Kalamata Olives
2 tablespoons Red Onion
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic

PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the chicken breast in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil, lemon juice, and add minced garlic. Season lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
Marinate the chicken for 10-15 minutes while you prepare the quinoa and vegetables.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until fully cooked and juices run clear.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, sliced red onion, chopped kalamata olives, and fresh parsley.
Once the chicken is done, slice it and serve on top of the quinoa salad, drizzling any pan juices over for extra flavor.
