INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup chopped Broccoli
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (squeezed)
1 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Rosemary & Thyme)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, combine the juice of 1/2 lemon, chopped fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Coat the 4 oz chicken breast with the lemon-herb mixture and let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
Place the marinated chicken breast on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Toss the chopped broccoli in a little olive oil, salt, pepper, and extra herbs if desired, then spread them on another baking tray.
Roast the chicken and broccoli in the oven. The chicken should take about 20-25 minutes (depending on thickness) until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, and the broccoli should become slightly crispy around the edges in about 15-20 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the quinoa according to package instructions (usually simmering in water for about 15 minutes) until fluffy.
Plate the roasted chicken alongside the crispy broccoli and a serving of quinoa, and enjoy your balanced meal.
