Seared Chicken Breast with Quinoa and Roasted Broccoli
Enjoy a light yet satisfying lunch featuring juicy, seared chicken breast paired with fluffy quinoa and crisp roasted broccoli. This dish is perfectly balanced with a hint of lemon and garlic, delivering a burst of flavor with every bite.
INGREDIENTS
3.5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Quinoa
1.5 cups roasted Broccoli
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper and spread them onto a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until edges are slightly crispy.
While the broccoli roasts, heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Add the chicken to the dry pan (or a lightly sprayed pan) and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
In the last minute of cooking the chicken, add minced garlic to the pan for a burst of flavor.
Warm the cooked quinoa if necessary, then mix in the lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
Plate the seared chicken breast alongside the quinoa and roasted broccoli. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the chicken for extra flavor.
