Creamy Lemon-Herb Chicken & Quinoa Bowl
Pan-seared chicken and fluffy quinoa tossed in a zesty lemon-yogurt sauce with tender zucchini and fresh herbs.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup zucchini
1 cup baby spinach
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp fresh dill
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with 0.125 tsp sea salt and 0.125 tsp black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan to rest, then in the same skillet, sauté the diced zucchini and minced garlic until the zucchini is tender.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and stir for 1 minute until just wilted, then remove from heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, fresh dill, and the remaining salt and pepper to create the sauce.
Toss the cooked quinoa with the sautéed vegetables and the creamy lemon-herb sauce until thoroughly combined.
Slice the rested chicken breast into strips and serve it over the quinoa and vegetable mixture.
