Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Salad
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and fresh herbs, tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables in a bright citrus vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
0.5 cup Diced cucumber
0.5 cup Halved cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp Minced red onion
1 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Avocado oil
0.25 whole Avocado
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the avocado oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the chicken in the skillet and sear for 5-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into bite-sized strips.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, and extra virgin olive oil to create the dressing.
Add the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, minced red onion, and chopped parsley to the bowl.
Toss the ingredients thoroughly until everything is well-coated in the lemon vinaigrette.
Divide the salad into a bowl, top with the sliced chicken and fresh avocado, and serve immediately.
