Lemon Herb Chicken and Quinoa Bowl
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with zesty lemon and fresh herbs served over a bed of fluffy quinoa and crisp garden vegetables.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped kale
0.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes
0.5 cup diced cucumber
2 tbsp hemp seeds
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove minced garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat half of the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 6 to 7 minutes per side.
While the chicken is cooking, whisk together the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small bowl to create the dressing.
Place the chopped kale in a large serving bowl and massage it with a small spoonful of the dressing until the leaves are slightly softened and vibrant green.
Add the cooked quinoa, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced cucumber to the bowl with the kale and toss gently to combine.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and arrange them over the quinoa and vegetable base.
Drizzle the remaining lemon-garlic dressing over the entire bowl and garnish with hemp seeds for a nutty crunch and extra protein.
