Method

Main Dish Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Start by marinating the chicken breast. In a bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken breast to the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the cooked chicken before serving.

Side Dish Directions

  1. 5

    Rinse the Quinoa

    In a fine mesh sieve, rinse the quinoa under cold water to remove any bitterness.

  2. 6

    Cook the Quinoa

    In a saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Add the rinsed quinoa and salt. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed.

  3. 7

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a separate pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the mixed vegetables and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they are tender.

  4. 8

    Combine and Serve

    Fluff the cooked quinoa with a fork and mix in the sautéed vegetables. Serve alongside the grilled chicken.
