Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and a pinch of dried oregano.
Heat the olive oil in a grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken in the pan and sear for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, place the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water and steam for 5 minutes until vibrant green and tender-crisp.
If the quinoa is cold, gently reheat it in a small saucepan or microwave and fluff it with a fork.
Allow the chicken to rest for 3 minutes after cooking, then slice into strips.
Arrange the quinoa on a plate, top with the sliced chicken, and serve the steamed broccoli on the side.
Drizzle the entire plate with fresh lemon juice before serving.
