Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook in water or low-sodium vegetable broth until all liquid is absorbed and it becomes fluffy.
Season the raw chicken breast with olive oil, fresh lemon juice, garlic powder, sea salt, and cracked black pepper.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for approximately 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket for 4-5 minutes until they are vibrant green and tender-crisp.
Let the chicken rest for 3 minutes before slicing it into strips.
Plate the fluffy quinoa, top with the sliced chicken, and serve with the steamed broccoli on the side.
