Grilled Chicken Breast with Crunchy Quinoa Salad and Lemon Vinaigrette
Grilled chicken breast served over a vibrant quinoa salad with cucumbers and peppers, tossed in a zesty lemon-dijon vinaigrette and topped with toasted almonds.
INGREDIENTS
2.6 oz Cooked Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Sliced Almonds
1/2 cup Diced Cucumber
1/4 cup Diced Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper and grill over medium-high heat until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked and cooled quinoa with the diced cucumber and red bell pepper.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard until emulsified.
Pour the vinaigrette over the quinoa and vegetable mixture, tossing well to coat every grain.
Transfer the quinoa salad to a plate and top with the sliced grilled chicken.
Finish the dish by sprinkling the toasted sliced almonds over the top for a satisfying crunch.
