INGREDIENTS
3.5 oz Grilled Chicken Breast (~99g)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (~93g)
1 cup Mixed Crunchy Vegetables (~100g)
3 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil (~13.5g)
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice (~15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Grill the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Meanwhile, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, mixed crunchy vegetables (such as diced cucumber, red bell pepper, and carrot), and fresh lemon juice.
Slice the grilled chicken and add to the bowl.
Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the salad and gently toss to combine all ingredients.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed and serve immediately.
