INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Broccoli
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, minced garlic, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Set aside the marinade.
Pat the chicken breast dry and brush it lightly with olive oil. Pour half of the lemon garlic mixture over the chicken, ensuring it is well-coated.
Place the chicken on a lightly greased baking sheet. Arrange broccoli florets on another baking tray, drizzle with a bit of olive oil if desired, and season with salt and pepper.
Bake the chicken for about 20-25 minutes or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, turning halfway for even crispiness. Roast the broccoli for 15-20 minutes until tender with slightly crisp edges.
While the chicken and broccoli are roasting, prepare the quinoa if not already cooked.
Once everything is cooked, plate the quinoa as a base, top with slices of crispy lemon garlic chicken, and add a generous serving of roasted broccoli on the side. Drizzle any remaining lemon garlic marinade over the chicken for extra zest.
