Lemon-Herb Chicken Quinoa Salad
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables in a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette that offers a bright and refreshing crunch.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp red onion
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp garlic
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked.
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before dicing into bite-sized cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic.
Add the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, minced red onion, and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl.
Add the diced chicken to the mixture and toss everything together until the salad is well-combined and coated in the dressing.
