Sautéed chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and oregano, served over a bed of fluffy quinoa and crisp-tender asparagus for a bright and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.25 cup dry quinoa
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup asparagus spears
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Combine quinoa and 0.5 cup water in a small pot, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer covered for 15 minutes.
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
Add minced garlic and asparagus spears to the skillet during the last 4 minutes of chicken cooking, sautéing until the asparagus is tender.
Fluff the cooked quinoa with a fork and stir in the fresh lemon juice and lemon zest.
Slice the chicken and serve it over the fluffy lemon quinoa alongside the garlic-sauteed asparagus.
