Zesty Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Bowl
Tender pan-seared chicken breast marinated in bright lemon and herbs served over fluffy quinoa with crisp garden vegetables.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup fresh baby spinach
0.5 cup diced cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp dried oregano
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken rests, whisk together the fresh lemon juice and minced garlic in a small bowl to create a zesty dressing.
Layer the fresh baby spinach in the base of a bowl and top with the fluffy cooked quinoa.
Slice the rested chicken breast into thin strips and arrange it over the quinoa along with the diced cucumber and cherry tomatoes.
Drizzle the lemon-garlic dressing over the entire bowl and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
