INGREDIENTS
2.8 ounces Chicken Breast
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa (approx)
2.5 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 serving Mixed Tabbouleh Vegetables & Herbs
1/4 cup Roasted Chickpeas
1 Garlic Clove
PREPARATION
Begin by preparing the marinade: In a small bowl, combine the juice of half a lemon, a minced garlic clove, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Lightly coat the 2.8 ounces of chicken breast with the marinade and let it rest for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly charred.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the quinoa tabbouleh by mixing 1/3 cup of cooked quinoa with chopped tomatoes, cucumber, fresh parsley, mint, a squeeze of lemon juice, and the remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
For the roasted chickpeas, if not pre-roasted, toss 1/4 cup chickpeas with a little olive oil, salt, and your favorite spices (such as paprika and cumin), then roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 20-25 minutes until crispy.
Plate the grilled chicken alongside a generous serving of quinoa tabbouleh and top with the roasted chickpeas. Drizzle any remaining lemon-garlic mixture over the chicken for extra flavor and serve warm.
