Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Bowl
Tender pan-seared chicken breast and fluffy quinoa tossed with crisp vegetables in a zesty lemon-herb dressing for a bright and refreshing lunch.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup chopped kale
0.25 cup diced cucumber
0.25 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with half of the sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat 1 teaspoon of the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, whisk together the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and the remaining herbs and spices in a small bowl.
Place the chopped kale in a large mixing bowl and massage it with a small spoonful of the dressing for 1 minute until it becomes tender and dark green.
Remove the chicken from the skillet, let it rest for 3 minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
Add the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, and cherry tomatoes to the bowl with the kale and toss to combine.
Top the bowl with the sliced chicken strips and drizzle the remaining lemon-herb dressing over the entire dish before serving.
