Grilled Chicken Breast with Quinoa and Roasted Broccoli
Enjoy a balanced, protein-packed lunch featuring a perfectly grilled chicken breast paired with fluffy quinoa and tender, roasted broccoli. A light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil ties the dish together with subtle flavor and ensures a satisfying crunch from the roasted veggies.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup roasted Broccoli
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and your oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Optionally, add your favorite herbs or a squeeze of lemon for extra flavor.
Grill the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions. Typically, combine 1/2 cup of rinsed quinoa with water, bring to a boil, then simmer covered for about 15 minutes until water is absorbed.
In a bowl, toss the broccoli with the teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Spread the broccoli evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Assemble your plate with a serving of quinoa, place the grilled chicken on top or beside, and add the roasted broccoli. Enjoy your balanced, nutritious lunch!
