INGREDIENTS
5.5 ounces Chicken Breast (~156g)
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (~93g)
1 cup raw Broccoli (~91g)
1 tablespoon Olive Oil (for roasting broccoli)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (for chicken sear)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breast and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from pan and let it rest.
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the broccoli florets with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the edges are crisp and the florets are tender.
Prepare quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked. If using pre-cooked quinoa, gently reheat it or serve at room temperature.
Plate the dish by placing a serving of quinoa, arranging the roasted broccoli alongside, and slicing the chicken breast. Enjoy your balanced dinner!
