Grilled Chicken and Quinoa Salad with Crunchy Vegetables
Tender grilled chicken tossed with fluffy quinoa and colorful diced vegetables in a bright lemon vinaigrette, finished with a satisfyingly crisp cucumber bite.
INGREDIENTS
1 ounce Grilled Chicken Breast
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
1.5 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.5 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
0.5 cup diced Cucumber
0.25 cup shredded Carrots
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook according to package directions, then set aside to cool to room temperature.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper, grill until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, and slice into small bite-sized pieces.
Dice the red bell pepper and cucumber into small, uniform cubes and finely shred the carrots.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice until emulsified.
Combine the cooled quinoa, grilled chicken strips, and all the prepared vegetables in a large salad bowl.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss thoroughly to ensure even coating.
Taste and adjust seasoning with a pinch of sea salt if desired, then serve immediately or chill for a more refreshing meal.
