Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 2 cups water or vegetable broth
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 zucchini, sliced into rounds
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 2 grilled chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional herbs (oregano or thyme)

Instructions

  1. Rinse quinoa under cold water. In a pot, combine with water or broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until fluffy.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and herbs. Coat chicken breasts in the mixture and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Heat your grill to medium-high. Soak wooden skewers in water if using.
  4. Toss bell peppers, zucchini, onion wedges, and cherry tomatoes in olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill for about 5-7 minutes until tender and charred.
  5. Place marinated chicken on the grill; cook for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  6. Layer quinoa in bowls or plates, top with grilled vegetables and sliced chicken. Drizzle with additional olive oil or dressing before serving.
