Zesty Kale and Quinoa Salad
Sautéed chicken breast and fluffy quinoa tossed with massaged kale and a bright lemon vinaigrette for a refreshing, citrusy crunch.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
2 cups chopped kale
0.25 cup canned chickpeas
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
0.5 oz feta cheese
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the chicken cooks, place the chopped kale in a large bowl and drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil.
Use your hands to massage the kale for 2-3 minutes until the leaves become soft, dark green, and tender.
Add the cooked quinoa, rinsed chickpeas, and lemon zest to the kale and toss thoroughly to combine.
Slice the cooked chicken into thin strips and arrange them over the kale and quinoa base.
Garnish the salad with crumbled feta cheese and serve immediately while the chicken is warm.
