Grilled Chicken and Quinoa Salad with Crunchy Vegetables
Enjoy a vibrant, nutrient-packed salad featuring tender grilled chicken, nutty quinoa, and a rainbow of crunchy vegetables tossed in a zesty lemon-olive oil dressing. This meal is light yet satisfying, perfect for a midday boost.
INGREDIENTS
3.5 ounces Grilled Chicken Breast
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
0.5 cup Sliced Cucumber
0.5 cup Chopped Bell Pepper
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes
0.25 cup Chopped Red Onion
0.5 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper (and your preferred herbs if desired).
Grill the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Once done, let it rest and then slice into strips.
Meanwhile, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa with sliced cucumber, chopped bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil and lemon juice to create the dressing.
Add the grilled chicken slices to the bowl, drizzle the dressing over the salad, and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately while the chicken is warm, or chill the salad for a refreshing cool meal.
