Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Bowl
Sautéed lemon-garlic chicken served over a bed of fluffy quinoa and crisp vegetables, drizzled with a creamy tahini dressing for a bright and zesty finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.25 cup dry quinoa
0.25 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup baby spinach
0.25 cup cucumber
0.25 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp tahini
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa under cold water, then combine with 0.5 cup water in a small pot, bring to a boil, reduce to low, and simmer covered for 15 minutes.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with the dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken rests, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small bowl, adding a teaspoon of water at a time until it reaches a pourable consistency.
Dice the cucumber and halve the cherry tomatoes.
Slice the chicken into strips and assemble the bowl by layering the spinach, cooked quinoa, cucumber, and tomatoes, then topping with the chicken and tahini dressing.
