INGREDIENTS
3 oz Grilled Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1/2 cup Roasted Chickpeas
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1/4 cup Mixed Fresh Herbs
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for roasting chickpeas if not already prepared.
Rinse and drain a can of chickpeas or use pre-soaked chickpeas, toss them with a pinch of salt, black pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil, then spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
While the chickpeas roast, cook the quinoa according to package instructions. Once cooked, fluff with a fork and let it cool slightly.
Grill the chicken breast seasoned with a bit of salt and pepper until fully cooked. Once slightly cooled, slice it into strips.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, and chopped mixed herbs to create a citrus-herb dressing.
Assemble the bowl by layering the cooked quinoa, roasted chickpeas, and grilled chicken slices.
Drizzle the herb-citrus dressing over the bowl and gently toss to combine all the flavors.
Season with additional salt and black pepper if needed, and serve immediately.
