INGREDIENTS
0.5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables
2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Mixed Herbs & Seasonings, to taste
Salt & Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss chopped bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, and mixed herbs, then spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Season a thin slice (0.5 oz) of chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a pinch of herbs. Grill the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until just cooked through, then slice thinly.
In a bowl, combine 1 cup of cooked quinoa with the roasted vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, the remaining olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper, and extra herbs to create a zesty dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the quinoa and vegetable mixture, gently toss, then top with the sliced grilled chicken.
Serve the salad warm or at room temperature for a light and refreshing lunch.
