Creamy Lemon-Herb Chicken and Quinoa Bowl
Pan-seared chicken breast and tender quinoa tossed in a silky lemon-herb yogurt sauce with crisp asparagus and fresh spinach.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp olive oil
1 cup fresh baby spinach
0.5 cup asparagus spears
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh dill
1 tsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan to rest, then add the trimmed asparagus spears and minced garlic to the same skillet, sautéing for 3 to 4 minutes until tender-crisp.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped dill, and chopped parsley until smooth.
Add the cooked quinoa and baby spinach to the skillet with the asparagus, tossing for 1 minute until the spinach is just wilted.
Slice the rested chicken breast into strips and serve over the quinoa and vegetable mixture, finishing with a generous drizzle of the creamy lemon-herb sauce.
