INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
0.75 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 cups Baby Spinach
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
0.5 cup Cucumber
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with fresh lemon zest, cracked black pepper, and a pinch of sea salt.
Heat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with a small amount of oil.
Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, baby spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumbers.
Whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice in a small jar to create a light vinaigrette.
Slice the grilled chicken into thin strips against the grain.
Toss the salad ingredients with the vinaigrette and top with the warm grilled chicken strips.
