Grilled Chicken and Quinoa Salad with Crunchy Vegetables
Lemon-marinated chicken breast grilled and tossed with fluffy quinoa and colorful peppers, finished with a zesty herb vinaigrette and crisp cucumbers.
INGREDIENTS
4.75 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup diced Cucumber
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions and set aside to cool to room temperature.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a teaspoon of lemon juice.
Grill the chicken over medium-high heat for approximately 6 to 7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before dicing into bite-sized cubes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, the remaining lemon juice, and any desired fresh herbs like parsley or oregano.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, diced chicken, red bell pepper, and cucumber.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to ensure everything is evenly coated before serving.
