INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/3 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Steamed Broccoli
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, chopped fresh herbs, and a pinch of black pepper to create a marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and coat it evenly with the marinade. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked. Measure out approximately 1/3 cup of cooked quinoa.
Steam the broccoli until it is tender yet crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
To plate, place the quinoa as a base, top with the sliced grilled chicken breast, and arrange the steamed broccoli on the side. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the chicken if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy a balanced, clean lunch.
