INGREDIENTS

5 oz Chicken breast

1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice

1 tsp Lemon zest

1 tsp Minced garlic

0.5 tsp Dried oregano

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 2

  Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish or reusable bag and pour the marinade over it, ensuring it is fully coated.

• 3

  Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

• 4

  Preheat a cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat.

• 5

  Place the marinated chicken in the hot skillet and sear for 6 to 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden brown.

• 6

  While the chicken cooks, steam the broccoli florets until they are tender-crisp and bright green.

• 7

  Serve the juicy chicken breast alongside the cooked quinoa and steamed broccoli for a balanced, clean meal.
