INGREDIENTS
3.5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Broccoli
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (for marinade)
0.5 tablespoon Olive Oil (for roasting)
1/2 Lemon
1 Garlic clove
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of half a lemon, one minced garlic clove, 1 teaspoon olive oil, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Allow it to marinate for at least 20-30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli florets with 0.5 tablespoon olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly crispy at the edges.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not pre-cooked. Typically, this involves simmering for about 15 minutes until water is absorbed.
To serve, plate the grilled chicken breast alongside a cup of cooked quinoa and a serving of roasted broccoli. Enjoy your balanced and nutrient-rich lunch!
