Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Salad
Tender grilled chicken breast tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables in a vibrant lemon-herb vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.5 cup diced cucumber
0.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove minced garlic
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, and minced garlic.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium 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 or bite-sized cubes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest until well combined.
Add the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped parsley to the bowl with the dressing.
Toss the salad thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are coated in the lemon-herb vinaigrette.
Top the quinoa base with the sliced chicken and serve immediately while the chicken is warm.
