Ingredients:

• 6 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast (approx. 170g)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (approx. 14g)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (approx. 15g)
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic (approx. 5g)
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano (approx. 0.5g)
• 1/4 teaspoon dried basil (approx. 0.5g)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/2 cup cooked quinoa (approx. 125g)
• 1 cup mixed steamed vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots) (approx. 150g)

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
2. Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish or ziplock bag and pour the marinade over it, ensuring the chicken is well-coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
4. In a serving plate, place cooked quinoa and steamed vegetables as a base.
5. Slice the grilled chicken and arrange it on top of the quinoa and vegetables.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy!
