Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Salad
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables in a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette for a refreshing and vibrant bite.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup kale
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp garlic
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with one teaspoon of the olive oil and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through and golden.
While the chicken cooks, place the chopped kale in a large bowl and massage it with a tiny drop of olive oil for 1 minute until the leaves become tender and dark green.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped parsley to create the dressing.
Slice the cooked chicken into bite-sized strips or cubes.
Add the cooked quinoa, sliced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and chicken to the bowl with the kale.
Drizzle the lemon-herb vinaigrette over the salad and toss thoroughly to combine before serving.
