Grilled Chicken Breast with Crunchy Cabbage Slaw and Quinoa
Enjoy a vibrant, protein-packed lunch featuring a perfectly grilled chicken breast paired with a refreshing crunch from crisp red cabbage slaw and nutty quinoa. This meal offers a balanced blend of lean protein, wholesome grains, and crisp, tangy vegetables, finished off with a light olive oil and lemon dressing.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup dry Quinoa
1 cup shredded Red Cabbage
1 medium Carrot
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Grill the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is grilling, rinse the quinoa thoroughly. In a small saucepan, combine the quinoa with water (use about 1/2 cup water for 1/4 cup dry quinoa) and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until water is absorbed and quinoa is tender, about 12-15 minutes.
In a bowl, combine shredded red cabbage and grated carrot. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then toss to coat evenly. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Plate the meal by serving a portion of the cooked quinoa topped with slices of grilled chicken breast, and add a generous side of the crunchy cabbage slaw.
