INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1/3 cup dry Quinoa (approx. 57g)
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens
6 Cherry Tomatoes
1/4 cup sliced Cucumber
1.5 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs if desired.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken grills, cook the quinoa according to package instructions. For 1/3 cup dry quinoa, bring water to a boil, add quinoa, reduce heat, and simmer for 12-15 minutes until water is absorbed.
In a large salad bowl, combine mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumber.
Prepare the dressing by whisking together the olive oil and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Slice the grilled chicken into strips.
Add the cooked quinoa and grilled chicken slices to the salad. Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious, protein-packed lunch.
