Lemon Herb Chicken with Quinoa and Tzatziki
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and herbs, served over fluffy quinoa with a cool, creamy tzatziki sauce.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
0.25 cup grated cucumber
1 tbsp fresh dill
1 clove garlic
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
Coat the chicken breast with the marinade and let it sit for 5 minutes.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the tzatziki by combining the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic clove, and chopped fresh dill in a small bowl.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips.
Assemble the bowl by placing the warm cooked quinoa at the base and topping it with the sliced chicken and halved cherry tomatoes.
Finish the dish with a generous dollop of the fresh tzatziki sauce.
