Lemon-Herb Chicken Quinoa Bowl
Seared lemon-oregano chicken served over fluffy quinoa with crisp cucumbers, juicy tomatoes, and a bright citrus vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp red onion
0.5 oz feta cheese
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with half of the dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with half of the olive oil and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, approximately 6-7 minutes per side.
While the chicken is cooking, whisk together the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, and the rest of the oregano in a small bowl to create the dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, chopped cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced red onion.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and allow it to rest for 3 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
Toss the quinoa and vegetable mixture with the prepared lemon dressing, then top with the sliced chicken, crumbled feta, and fresh parsley.
