Rinse the dry quinoa under cold water. In a small pot, combine the quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the water is absorbed.
While the quinoa cooks, season the raw chicken breast evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear for 5 to 6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and let it rest for 3 minutes before slicing it into strips.
Place the raw broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam for 4 to 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
Assemble the power bowl by placing the cooked quinoa at the bottom, then top with the sliced chicken, steamed broccoli, and fresh avocado slices.
Finish the bowl with a drizzle of fresh lemon juice and serve immediately.
