Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Salad
Grilled chicken breast marinated in zesty lemon and herbs, tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables for a refreshing, protein-packed crunch.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
0.5 cup Cucumber
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp Red onion
1 tbsp Feta cheese
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with 0.125 tsp of sea salt, 0.125 tsp of black pepper, and the dried oregano.
Heat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and the remaining sea salt and black pepper to create the dressing.
Add the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, diced red onion, and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl.
Toss the ingredients thoroughly until everything is well-coated with the lemon dressing.
Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese to maintain its texture.
Transfer the quinoa salad to a serving bowl and top with the sliced grilled chicken.
