Grilled Chicken Breast with Quinoa and Roasted Broccoli
Enjoy this balanced and protein-packed lunch featuring succulent grilled chicken breast paired with nutty quinoa and tender roasted broccoli, all drizzled with a hint of olive oil and zesty lemon for a burst of flavor.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/3 cup dry Quinoa (~60g)
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the chicken to keep it moist.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small pot, combine the quinoa with water (use a 2:1 water-to-quinoa ratio) and a pinch of salt, then bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for about 12-15 minutes, or until all water is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy.
Toss the broccoli with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast it in a preheated oven at 425°F for about 10-12 minutes or until tender and slightly charred, or lightly sauté it in a pan until just tender.
Once cooked, plate the grilled chicken with a serving of quinoa and roasted broccoli. Finish with a drizzle of lemon juice over the top for extra brightness.
