INGREDIENTS
4 oz Grilled Chicken Breast
0.75 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Mixed Vegetables
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Season the 4 oz chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill for 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked. Measure out 0.75 cup of cooked quinoa and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of mixed vegetables which can include fresh spinach, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and diced bell pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon of olive oil with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper to create the vinaigrette.
Add the slightly cooled quinoa to the vegetables, then pour the lemon vinaigrette over the salad. Toss gently to combine.
Slice the grilled chicken and arrange on top of the salad. Serve immediately.
