INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2/3 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Roasted Broccoli
Olive Oil Spray
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and your oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Optionally, you can marinate the chicken in a bit of olive oil spray and your favorite herbs for 15 minutes prior to grilling.
Grill the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the quinoa if not already cooked. If cooking from scratch, rinse 2/3 cup of quinoa, then simmer it in water (in a 1:2 ratio) for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed.
For the broccoli, toss 1 cup of broccoli florets with a light spray of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Plate the sliced grilled chicken breast alongside the cooked quinoa and roasted broccoli. Enjoy your nutritious and balanced lunch!
