INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

2 cups cremini mushrooms

1 tbsp ghee

3 cloves garlic

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp fresh thyme

0.5 cup cooked quinoa

1 tsp lemon juice

1 tbsp fresh parsley

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• 2

  Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized strips and halve the cremini mushrooms.

• 3

  In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken and mushrooms with melted ghee, minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme leaves.

• 4

  Toss everything together until the chicken and mushrooms are thoroughly coated in the garlic-ghee mixture.

• 5

  Spread the mixture in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure everything roasts evenly.

• 6

  Roast in the oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the mushrooms are tender and golden brown.

• 7

  While the tray roasts, gently warm the pre-cooked quinoa in a small saucepan or the microwave.

• 8

  Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately drizzle the chicken and mushrooms with fresh lemon juice.

• 9

  Divide the warm quinoa between serving bowls and top with the roasted garlic butter mushroom and chicken mixture.
