Savor a beautifully balanced meal featuring a tender, herb-crusted chicken breast, crisp roasted seasonal vegetables, and a light serving of quinoa. Each bite bursts with fresh flavors enhanced by fragrant rosemary and thyme, making this dish a perfect, healthful option for dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 teaspoons Olive Oil
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 medium Zucchini
5 Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
Pinch each of Rosemary & Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Prepare the vegetables by chopping the red bell pepper and zucchini into bite-sized pieces, and halving the cherry tomatoes if desired.
In a bowl, toss the chopped vegetables with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, a pinch of rosemary and thyme, and salt and pepper.
Spread the vegetables evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and additional chopped herbs. Press a little extra herb mixture onto the chicken to form a light crust.
Heat the remaining teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes on each side, ensuring it’s cooked through and has a golden crust.
Plate the chicken with the roasted vegetables and serve alongside 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa.
