PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

  • 2

    Rinse the dry quinoa thoroughly in a fine-mesh strainer under cold running water for 30 seconds to remove the naturally occurring bitter coating called saponin.

  • 3

    In a small saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and water; bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.

  • 4

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 15 minutes until the water is fully absorbed.

  • 5

    Remove the quinoa from the heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes to steam, then fluff it gently with a fork to achieve a light texture.

  • 6

    While the quinoa cooks, place the chicken breast, sliced bell peppers, and zucchini on the prepared baking sheet.

  • 7

    Drizzle the chicken and vegetables with olive oil and season evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

  • 8

    Roast in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender and slightly browned.

  • 9

    Slice the roasted chicken into strips and serve it alongside the vegetables over the fluffy quinoa, garnishing with fresh chopped parsley.
