INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1/4 cup diced Cucumber
1/4 cup halved Cherry Tomatoes
1 tablespoon minced Red Onion
1/2 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Parsley
1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Mint
PREPARATION
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper (or preferred seasonings).
Grill the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked and juices run clear.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the quinoa if it isn’t already cooked. Fluff the quinoa and let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa with diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and minced red onion.
Drizzle the lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil over the quinoa salad. Toss in the chopped fresh parsley and mint.
Slice the grilled chicken into strips and serve atop or alongside the quinoa salad.
Garnish with an extra sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired and enjoy your balanced, flavorful lunch.
