INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 Lemon
2 Tbsp Fresh Herbs (Rosemary & Thyme)
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup Mixed Vegetables (Broccoli, Bell Pepper, Zucchini)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
In a small bowl, combine the juice of the lemon, chopped fresh herbs, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Chop the mixed vegetables into bite-sized pieces, toss them in a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for 20-25 minutes until they are crispy on the edges and tender in the middle.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not pre-cooked. Typically, simmer 1/2 cup quinoa in water until fluffy, about 15 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
Plate the chicken with a generous serving of roasted vegetables and a side of fluffy quinoa. Drizzle any extra lemon-herb marinade over the chicken if desired.
