Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Add Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are coated evenly. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Preparation of Quinoa Salad

  1. 4

    Cook Quinoa

    In a saucepan, bring vegetable broth to a boil. Add quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and all the broth is absorbed.

  2. 5

    Chop Vegetables

    While the quinoa is cooking, chop the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into small pieces.

  3. 6

    Mix Salad

    In a large bowl, combine cooked quinoa, chopped vegetables, and finely chopped fresh parsley. Toss gently to combine.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Serve

    On a plate, serve the grilled chicken alongside a generous portion of quinoa salad. Drizzle with any remaining marinade if desired.
