Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Salad
Tender pan-seared chicken breast served over a zesty quinoa salad tossed with crisp cucumbers and fresh garden herbs.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.5 cup Cucumber
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with 0.125 tsp sea salt, 0.125 tsp black pepper, and 0.25 tsp dried oregano.
Heat 0.5 tbsp of the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the chicken rests, prepare the dressing by whisking together the remaining 0.5 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 minced garlic clove, and the remaining salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
Add the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped parsley to the bowl and toss thoroughly to coat in the lemon-garlic dressing.
Slice the rested chicken into thin strips and arrange them over the bright, herb-flecked quinoa salad before serving.
