INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
1 Garlic Clove
1/2 tsp Dried Thyme
1/2 tsp Dried Rosemary
1/2 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, mix the dried thyme, rosemary, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the chicken breast dry and rub both sides with the spice mixture.
Heat a non-stick skillet with olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for about 2 minutes per side until lightly browned.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and finish cooking in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions. Once cooked, stir in the juice of half a lemon and the minced garlic.
Plate the quinoa and top with the herb-crusted chicken. Garnish with extra lemon wedges or fresh herbs if desired.
