Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Salad
Grilled lemon-herb chicken breast served over a bed of fluffy quinoa and crisp cucumbers, offering a refreshing crunch in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 cup diced cucumber
0.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1 tbsp crumbled feta cheese
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes to retain juices, then slice into bite-sized cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice to create a light dressing.
Add the cooked quinoa, diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and fresh parsley to the bowl.
Toss the salad ingredients gently until they are thoroughly coated with the lemon dressing.
Top the salad with the sliced chicken and crumbled feta cheese before serving or storing in a container for a quick hospital lunch.
