INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 cups Spinach
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix lemon juice, minced garlic, and olive oil.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, warm the quinoa if needed and set aside.
In another pan, lightly sauté spinach in a splash of water or a few drops of olive oil just until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.
Drizzle the lemon garlic mixture over the cooked chicken during the last minute of searing to infuse flavor.
Plate the quinoa, add the sautéed spinach on the side, and top with the sliced chicken. Enjoy immediately.
