Lentil and Chickpea Power Bowl
Grilled chicken breast served over a fiber-rich bed of lentils and chickpeas with crisp cucumbers and a zesty lemon-herb dressing.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked brown lentils
0.25 cup cooked chickpeas
1 cup baby spinach
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In a large bowl, layer the baby spinach, cooked lentils, and chickpeas.
Add the diced cucumber and halved cherry tomatoes to the bowl.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice to create a light vinaigrette.
Drizzle the dressing over the vegetables and legumes, then top with the sliced grilled chicken.
Toss gently to combine all the flavors before serving.
