Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Salad
Pan-seared chicken breast tossed with fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables in a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette for a bright and refreshing finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp minced garlic
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with the dried oregano and half of the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 6 minutes per side.
While the chicken cooks, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped parsley in a small bowl to create the dressing.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and baby spinach.
Remove the chicken from the pan, let it rest for 3 minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
Pour the dressing over the quinoa and vegetable mixture, tossing well to coat, and top with the warm sliced chicken.
