Grilled Chicken and Quinoa Salad with Crunchy Vegetables
Grilled chicken breast tossed with fluffy quinoa and a medley of crisp garden vegetables, finished with a bright and zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
5.3 ounces Chicken Breast
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
0.5 cup Diced Cucumber
0.25 cup Diced Red Bell Pepper
0.25 cup Shredded Carrots
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and black pepper.
Grill the chicken over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before dicing into bite-sized cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, diced red bell pepper, and shredded carrots.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and finely chopped fresh parsley to create the dressing.
Add the diced chicken to the bowl with the quinoa and vegetables.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss thoroughly to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
