Grilled Lemon-Garlic Chicken Breast with Quinoa and Feta
Enjoy a bright, satisfying lunch featuring a perfectly grilled lemon-garlic chicken breast paired with fluffy quinoa and a sprinkle of tangy feta. This dish is designed to be light yet protein-packed, celebrating simple, clean flavors without an overload of veggies.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 oz Feta Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (juice and zest)
1 Garlic Clove
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine the juice and zest from 1/2 a lemon with 1 minced garlic clove and 1 tsp olive oil to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Allow it to marinate for at least 20 minutes to infuse the flavors.
Preheat your grill (or grill pan) over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until its internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked. A 1/2 cup serving of cooked quinoa is ideal.
To assemble, slice the grilled chicken breast, serve over the quinoa, and sprinkle 1 oz of crumbled feta cheese on top.
Enjoy this bright and balanced lunch that pairs zesty, savory chicken with the nutty flavor of quinoa and the creamy tanginess of feta.
