Seared Lemon Garlic Chicken Breast with Quinoa and Steamed Broccoli
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with fresh lemon and garlic, served over fluffy quinoa and steamed broccoli with a drizzle of zesty olive oil and creamy avocado.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Quinoa
1.5 cups steamed Broccoli
2.5 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.5 medium Avocado
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
0.5 tbsp Slivered Almonds
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook in water or vegetable broth according to package directions until fluffy.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and minced garlic on both sides.
Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the chicken during the final minute of searing to deglaze the pan and add brightness.
Steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket for 4-5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and prepare the avocado by slicing it into thin wedges.
Assemble the bowl by layering the quinoa and broccoli, then topping with the sliced chicken, avocado, and slivered almonds.
Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the entire dish and finish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
