INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tsp Dried Mixed Herbs (Thyme & Rosemary)
1 cup Mixed Root Vegetables (Carrot & Parsnip)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, fresh lemon juice, dried mixed herbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the lemon herb mixture over it, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Chop the mixed root vegetables into uniform pieces and toss them in a small drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the marinated chicken breast on a baking tray and surround it with the chopped vegetables.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and has a crispy exterior, and the vegetables are tender with caramelized edges.
While the chicken and vegetables are roasting, prepare the quinoa. If not pre-cooked, rinse 1/2 cup quinoa and cook it in water (using a 1:2 ratio) until fluffy, about 15 minutes.
Plate the roasted chicken alongside a serving of the root vegetables and a portion of fluffy quinoa. Serve warm and enjoy.
