Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Bowl
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty herbs served over fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables for a bright, refreshing lunch.
INGREDIENTS
4 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
1 cup Baby spinach
1 tbsp Feta cheese
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.13 tsp Sea salt
0.13 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with the dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the seasoned chicken in the skillet and cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the chicken is cooking, place the cooked quinoa and baby spinach in a large mixing bowl and toss with the fresh lemon juice until the spinach begins to slightly wilt from the warmth of the quinoa.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 3 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
Add the diced cucumber and halved cherry tomatoes to the quinoa and spinach mixture.
Transfer the quinoa base to a serving bowl, top with the sliced lemon-herb chicken, and finish by sprinkling the crumbled feta cheese over the top.
