Savor the comforting blend of a perfectly grilled chicken breast paired with creamy quinoa and roasted broccoli in a light olive oil glaze. The dish brings a balance of textures and flavors – tender and smoky chicken, nutty, velvety quinoa enriched with a splash of cream, and broccoli roasted to bring out its natural sweetness, creating a wholesome, satisfying lunch.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Dry Quinoa
2 tbsp Heavy Cream
1.5 cups Chopped Broccoli
1.25 tbsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat grill to medium-high heat and season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Grill the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Once done, set aside to rest.
Rinse the dry quinoa thoroughly. In a saucepan, combine the quinoa with water (using a 1:2 ratio) and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the quinoa is fluffy and water is absorbed.
Stir in the heavy cream into the cooked quinoa for a creamy texture. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the chopped broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread it in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until the edges are slightly crispy and tender.
Slice the grilled chicken breast and serve it atop a bed of creamy quinoa with a generous side of roasted broccoli. Enjoy your balanced and flavorful lunch!
