Whisk together half of the olive oil, half of the lemon juice, and the minced garlic in a small bowl.
Coat the chicken breast thoroughly in the marinade and let it rest for at least 10 minutes.
Grill the chicken over medium-high heat for approximately 6 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is lightly charred.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, cucumber, tomato, and fresh parsley.
Toss the quinoa mixture with the remaining olive oil and lemon juice to create the tabbouleh.
Stir a pinch of lemon zest into the Greek yogurt to prepare the sauce.
Slice the grilled chicken and serve it over the quinoa tabbouleh with the yogurt sauce on the side.
