Savor a light yet satisfying dinner featuring tender seared chicken infused with zesty lemon and aromatic garlic. Paired with perfectly steamed broccoli and a modest serving of fluffy quinoa, this dish is uplifted by ripe avocado slices, delivering a balanced burst of healthy fats and vibrant flavor in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 ounces Chicken Breast (approx. 42g)
0.125 cup dry Quinoa (approx. 22g)
1 cup Broccoli
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1/4 Avocado, sliced
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small saucepan, add the quinoa with 1/4 cup water, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook on low heat until water is absorbed (about 15 minutes). Set aside.
While the quinoa cooks, pat the chicken breast dry. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked through. In the last minute of cooking, drizzle the lemon juice over the chicken and let it create a light sauce.
Steam the broccoli until just tender, approximately 5-6 minutes.
Slice the quarter avocado.
Plate the seared lemon garlic chicken alongside the steamed broccoli and a serving of quinoa. Top with sliced avocado and an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
