Grilled Chicken Breast with Crunchy Quinoa Salad
Tender grilled chicken breast served over a vibrant quinoa salad with cucumber, peppers, and toasted almonds, finished with a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Raw Chicken Breast (yields approx 3.5 oz grilled)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tbsp Slivered Almonds
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup Diced Cucumber
1/4 cup Diced Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Chopped Fresh Parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of sea 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.
While the chicken is grilling, place the cooked quinoa in a medium mixing bowl.
Add the diced cucumber, red bell pepper, and chopped parsley to the quinoa.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the olive oil and lemon juice to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the quinoa mixture and toss well to combine.
Toast the slivered almonds in a dry pan over medium heat for 2 minutes until golden and fragrant, then fold them into the salad.
Slice the grilled chicken into strips and serve it over the crunchy quinoa salad.
