Savor a tender herb-roasted chicken breast paired with a zesty lemon garlic quinoa that’s light yet satisfying. This dish marries aromatic herbs and bright citrus with a protein-packed chicken, making it a balanced meal perfect for brunch, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
3/4 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Garlic Clove
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme leaves, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a baking dish and pour half of the herb mixture over it, ensuring it's evenly coated.
Roast the chicken in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken roasts, prepare the quinoa. If not already cooked, rinse 0.75 cup quinoa under cold water and cook according to package instructions.
Once cooked, fluff the quinoa and stir in the remaining herb mixture for a burst of flavor.
Serve the herb-roasted chicken over a bed of lemon garlic quinoa, garnishing with extra fresh herbs if desired.
