PREPARATION

1
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
2
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 6 to 7 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
4
Transfer the chicken to a plate to rest, keeping the skillet on the heat.
5
Add the sliced zucchini and minced garlic to the skillet, sautéing for about 3 minutes until the zucchini is tender-crisp.
6
Pour in the lemon juice and add the lemon zest, stirring to deglaze the pan and coat the zucchini in the bright sauce.
7
Slice the chicken and serve it over the cooked quinoa, topped with the sautéed zucchini and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
