Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Chicken Preparation

  1. 2

    Place the cage-free chicken breasts in a large zip-lock bag or shallow dish.

  2. 3

    Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.

Cooking the Chicken

  1. 4

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 5

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the remaining marinade.

  3. 6

    Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Cooking the Sides

  1. 7

    While the chicken is grilling, prepare the quinoa. In a medium saucepan, bring vegetable broth to a boil.

  2. 8

    Add the rinsed quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and the broth is absorbed.

  3. 9

    In a separate pan, steam or grill the asparagus until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 10

    Once the chicken is done, allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Plating

  1. 11

    On a plate, serve sliced grilled chicken alongside quinoa, grilled asparagus, and halved cherry tomatoes.

  2. 12

    Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top for added flavor.
