Lemon-Herb Chicken and Quinoa Bowl
Sautéed lemon-marinated chicken breast served over fluffy quinoa with a crisp cucumber and tomato salad for a bright, refreshing crunch.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden brown.
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
While the chicken rests, dice the cucumber and halve the cherry tomatoes, then toss them in a small bowl with the lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley.
Place the warm cooked quinoa in a serving bowl, top with the sliced chicken, and finish with the fresh vegetable salad mixture.
