INGREDIENTS
2.5 oz Chicken Breast (~70g)
0.75 cup Cooked Quinoa (~139g)
0.5 cup Zucchini (~90g)
0.5 cup Red Bell Pepper (~75g)
0.25 cup Red Onion (~40g)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of lemon juice.
Grill the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Allow it to rest, then slice into strips.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 400°F to roast the vegetables.
Toss the zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for 15-20 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa with the roasted vegetables. Drizzle with additional lemon juice if desired and gently toss.
Assemble the salad by layering the quinoa and roasted vegetable mix with the sliced grilled chicken on top. Serve warm or at room temperature.
