Grilled Lemon Herb Chicken Breast with Quinoa and Steamed Broccoli
Enjoy a light yet satisfying lunch featuring a tender grilled chicken breast infused with fresh lemon and herbs, accompanied by a fluffy serving of quinoa and crisp steamed broccoli. This balanced meal delivers a zesty, aromatic experience perfect for a midday boost.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/4 cup dry Quinoa
1 cup Broccoli
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Mixed Dried Herbs
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, olive oil, dried herbs, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
Coat the chicken breast with the marinade and let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly. In a small pot, combine the quinoa with water (use the package instructions, typically a 1:2 ratio) and bring to a boil. Then, reduce heat, cover, and simmer until water is absorbed (about 15 minutes). Fluff with a fork.
Grill the marinated chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Steam the broccoli until tender but still crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
Plate the grilled chicken with the quinoa and steamed broccoli. Optionally drizzle a little extra lemon juice over the broccoli for added zest.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful lunch.
