Grilled Lemon Herb Chicken with Quinoa and Spinach

 Grilled Lemon Herb Chicken with Quinoa and Spinach

Ingredients:

• 200g of chicken breast

• 100g of quinoa

• 100g of spinach

• 30ml of olive oil

• 1 lemon (juiced)

• 2 cloves of garlic (minced)

• Salt to taste

• Black pepper to taste

• Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Kitchen Tools Needed:

• Grill

• Pot

• Mixing Bowl

• Cutting Board

• Knife

Instructions:

• Start by marinating the chicken breast. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breast and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

• While the chicken is marinating, rinse the quinoa under cold water and cook it in a pot with 200ml of water. Bring it to a boil. Then, reduce the heat to low and cover it. Cook for about 15 minutes, until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy. Set aside.

• Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).

• In the last few minutes of cooking the chicken, add the spinach to the grill to wilt it slightly, about 1-2 minutes.

• Once everything is cooked, serve the quinoa on a plate. Top it with the grilled lemon herb chicken. Add the wilted spinach on the side. Garnish with fresh parsley.
