Grilled Chicken Breast with Roasted Broccoli and Red Lentil Mash
Lemon-marinated chicken breast grilled to perfection, served with a savory red lentil mash and florets of charred roasted broccoli.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Dry Red Lentils
2 cups Broccoli Florets
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly and place them in a small pot with 3/4 cup of water; bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until soft.
Toss the broccoli florets with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, then spread on the baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes until the edges are charred.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and half of the lemon juice, then grill over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Once the lentils have absorbed the water and are tender, stir in the minced garlic, the remaining lemon juice, and a pinch of cumin if desired, mashing with a fork until creamy.
Slice the grilled chicken and serve it alongside the roasted broccoli over a bed of the warm red lentil mash, drizzling the final teaspoon of olive oil over the top.
