INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1/2 medium Cucumber
1/2 medium Tomato
1/2 medium Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 medium Lemon (juiced)
2 Tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium heat. In a small bowl, mix half the lemon juice, olive oil, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper.
Pat the chicken breast dry and coat evenly with the lemon-herb mixture. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
Cook the chicken in the heated skillet for about 5-6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Once cooked, rest for a few minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
Dice the cucumber, tomato, and bell pepper, and toss with the remaining lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper to create a crisp vegetable salad.
To plate, layer the cooked quinoa, arrange the sliced chicken on top, and garnish with the fresh vegetable salad. Serve immediately.
