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 fresh parsley
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing it into bite-sized cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and finely chopped fresh parsley.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil until the dressing is well emulsified.
Add the cubed chicken to the quinoa mixture, pour the lemon-herb dressing over the top, and toss everything together until thoroughly combined.
