Lemon-Herb Chicken with Quinoa Salad
Tender chicken breast seared with zesty lemon and fresh herbs, served over a vibrant quinoa salad tossed with crisp cucumbers and juicy cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken breast
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 clove Garlic
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
0.5 cup Cucumber
2 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with the dried oregano and half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat one teaspoon of the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken for 5 to 7 minutes per side until it is golden brown and cooked through to an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
While the chicken cooks, halve the cherry tomatoes and dice the cucumber into bite-sized pieces.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, and the remaining salt and pepper.
Add the cooked quinoa, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl and toss until thoroughly coated in the dressing.
Slice the chicken into thin strips and serve it warm over the chilled quinoa salad.
