Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Salad
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables in a bright, zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.5 cup diced cucumber
0.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 clove minced garlic
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with one teaspoon of the olive oil and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
While the chicken rests, whisk together the remaining olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small bowl to create the dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped parsley.
Slice the rested chicken into bite-sized strips and add them to the quinoa mixture.
Drizzle the lemon-garlic dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all the vibrant flavors.
