PREPARATION

1
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly in a fine-mesh strainer under cold running water to remove its natural bitter coating.
2
Place the rinsed quinoa and water into a large microwave-safe glass bowl.
3
Cover the bowl tightly with a microwave-safe ceramic plate to trap the steam.
4
Microwave on high power for 6 minutes, then carefully remove the bowl using oven mitts.
5
Let the bowl sit undisturbed and covered for an additional 5 minutes to allow the grains to fully absorb the moisture.
6
Remove the plate and fluff the quinoa with a fork until the grains are light and separated.
7
Stir in the sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and lemon juice to season the grains.
8
Add the baby spinach to the warm quinoa and toss until the leaves are slightly wilted.
9
Top the bowl with sliced cooked chicken breast and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil before serving.
