Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Optionally, you can add a squeeze of lemon juice for extra flavor.
Grill the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked.
Dice the tomato and chop the cucumber into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Toss the cucumber and tomato with the dressing until well combined.
Assemble the dish by placing the cooked quinoa on a plate, topping with the grilled chicken slices, and finishing with the crunchy cucumber-tomato salad.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, protein-packed lunch!
