INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Broccoli Florets
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1/2 tbsp Olive Oil (for Chicken)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for Broccoli)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to make a marinade.
Pat the chicken breast dry and rub it with half a tablespoon of olive oil. Marinate the chicken using half of the lemon garlic mixture for about 10 minutes.
Heat 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 and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
While the chicken cooks, toss the broccoli florets in 1 teaspoon of olive oil and the remaining lemon garlic mixture, then spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are crispy and lightly charred.
Reheat or prepare your 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa if necessary.
Plate the seared chicken alongside the crispy roasted broccoli and a serving of quinoa. Enjoy the balanced flavors and textures!
