Grilled Chicken and Quinoa Salad with Crunchy Vegetables
Enjoy a refreshing and light lunch salad featuring tender, lightly grilled chicken, nutty quinoa, and a crisp medley of cucumber, bell pepper, and cherry tomatoes, all tossed in a zesty lemon-olive oil dressing with a hint of tangy feta.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz grilled chicken breast (~42 g)
1/3 cup cooked quinoa (~50 g)
1/2 cup cucumber, sliced
1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tbsp crumbled feta cheese
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper, then grill for about 3-4 minutes per side or until cooked through. Allow it to rest before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, sliced cucumber, diced red bell pepper, and halved cherry tomatoes.
Whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice, and drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad.
Add the grilled chicken slices to the bowl and gently toss to combine all the ingredients.
Top the salad with a light sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese, and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Serve immediately for a fresh, crunchy, and satisfying lunch.
