Grilled Chicken Breast with Crunchy Quinoa Salad and Lemon Vinaigrette
Tender chicken breast grilled to perfection and served over a chilled quinoa salad with crisp vegetables, finished with a zesty lemon vinaigrette and toasted slivered almonds.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tbsp Slivered Almonds
1/2 cup Chopped Cucumber
1/4 cup Chopped Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with a touch of oil spray.
Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the chicken cooks, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl to create the vinaigrette.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, chopped cucumber, red bell pepper, and slivered almonds.
Pour the lemon vinaigrette over the quinoa mixture and toss well to ensure even coating.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes after cooking, then slice it into thin strips.
Serve the sliced chicken over the crunchy quinoa salad and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
