Enjoy a light yet satisfying lunch featuring succulent grilled chicken breast infused with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, paired with fluffy quinoa and tender steamed broccoli. This harmonious dish brings a burst of freshness and a beautiful balance of flavors, perfect for a healthy midday meal.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz Chicken Breast
1/8 cup dry Quinoa
1 cup steamed Broccoli
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (thyme & oregano)
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped fresh herbs to create a zesty marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Let sit for at least 15-20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Meanwhile, rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil (use about twice the volume of water as quinoa). Add the quinoa, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 12-15 minutes until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
Steam the broccoli until just tender, about 4-5 minutes.
Plate the grilled chicken alongside the quinoa and steamed broccoli. Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced, protein-rich meal.
