Lemon Herb Baked Chicken Breast
Tender chicken breast oven-baked with a zesty lemon-herb marinade, served alongside fluffy quinoa and vibrant steamed broccoli for a bright and refreshing meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 cloves garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.5 tsp dried thyme
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup broccoli florets
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the baking dish and pour the marinade over it, turning to ensure it is evenly coated on both sides.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
While the chicken is resting, steam the broccoli florets for 5 to 7 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
Serve the sliced chicken breast over the bed of warm cooked quinoa with the steamed broccoli on the side, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the protein.
