Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Bowl
Pan-seared chicken breast marinated in zesty lemon and fresh herbs, served over a bed of fluffy quinoa with crisp cucumbers and juicy cherry tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh oregano
0.5 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp feta cheese
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, fresh oregano, and lemon zest.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and sear for 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In a serving bowl, combine the cooked quinoa with lemon juice and freshly chopped parsley, tossing to incorporate.
Top the quinoa with the sliced chicken, diced cucumber, and halved cherry tomatoes.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top and serve immediately.
