Zesty Lemon Herb Quinoa Salad
Tender grilled chicken breast tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables in a bright, zesty lemon-herb dressing.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.5 cup diced cucumber
0.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through, then let it rest before dicing into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped fresh parsley.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest to create the dressing.
Add the diced chicken to the quinoa and vegetable mixture.
Drizzle the lemon dressing over the salad and toss thoroughly to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Serve immediately at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
