Grilled Chicken and Quinoa Salad with Roasted Vegetables
Tender grilled chicken breast and fluffy quinoa tossed with oven-roasted zucchini and peppers, finished with a bright lemon-herb vinaigrette and a sprinkle of toasted pine nuts.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1/4 cup Chickpeas
1/2 cup chopped Zucchini
1/2 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Pine Nuts
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Toss the chopped zucchini and red bell pepper with one teaspoon of the olive oil and a pinch of salt, then spread on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and dried oregano, then grill over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, and a pinch of black pepper to create the dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, chickpeas, roasted vegetables, and the grilled chicken sliced into strips.
Drizzle the lemon-herb dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Garnish with toasted pine nuts and fresh parsley before serving.
