INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, roughly chopped rosemary and thyme, salt, and pepper.
Pat the chicken breast dry and rub the herb mixture evenly over it.
Place the chicken on a lightly greased baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken roasts, prepare quinoa if not already cooked. If cooking from scratch, rinse quinoa and simmer in water (or low-sodium broth) for around 15 minutes until fluffy.
Fluff the cooked quinoa with a fork and drizzle with any remaining lemon garlic mixture.
Slice the roasted chicken and serve over a bed of lemon garlic quinoa.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired and enjoy your nutritious, balanced meal.
