INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Chicken Breast
2 tsp Olive Oil (for marinade)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Broccoli
2 tsp Olive Oil (for roasting)
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a zip-lock bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your grill (or grill pan) over medium-high heat. Once hot, grill the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, preheat the oven to 425°F for the broccoli. Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them out on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-18 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not pre-cooked, or warm the pre-cooked quinoa.
Plate the grilled chicken alongside the quinoa and roasted broccoli. Enjoy your balanced, flavorful lunch!
