Lemon-Herb Chicken with Cucumber Yogurt Sauce
Pan-seared chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and oregano, served over fluffy quinoa with a cool, creamy cucumber yogurt sauce.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.25 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
0.5 cup diced cucumber
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 tsp dried oregano
1 clove minced garlic
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the sauce by whisking together the Greek yogurt, diced cucumber, minced garlic, and fresh lemon juice in a small bowl.
Remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for 3 minutes before slicing it into strips.
Serve the sliced chicken over the warm cooked quinoa and top generously with the cucumber yogurt sauce.
