INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil (for marinade)
2.5 tsp Olive Oil (for roasting)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by preparing the chicken: lightly pound the 4 oz chicken breast to even thickness. Marinate with 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Grill the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and juices run clear.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the quinoa. If not already cooked, rinse 1/2 cup quinoa and cook according to package instructions until fluffy.
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss 1 cup broccoli florets with 2.5 teaspoons olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the oven for about 15-18 minutes until the edges are crispy and the stems are tender.
Plate the grilled chicken alongside the cooked quinoa and roasted broccoli. Optionally drizzle a little extra lemon juice on top for added brightness.
