Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water and cook according to package instructions until all water is absorbed and grains are fluffy.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the broccoli florets with one teaspoon of olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, then spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli for 15-20 minutes until the edges are tender and slightly charred.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and dried herbs of choice.
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Whisk the remaining teaspoon of olive oil with the lemon juice in a small bowl to create a light dressing.
Slice the grilled chicken and serve it alongside the quinoa and roasted broccoli, drizzling the lemon dressing over the entire plate before serving.
