Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and cracked black pepper in a small bowl to create a marinade.
Coat the chicken breast thoroughly with the marinade and let it sit for 10 minutes.
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6 to 7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, steam the broccoli florets over boiling water for about 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
Prepare the quinoa according to package instructions if not already cooked, ensuring it is light and fluffy.
Slice the grilled chicken into strips and serve it over the quinoa with the steamed broccoli on the side.
