Ingredients
  

  • 4 pieces chicken breasts boneless, skinless
  • 2 cups quinoa cooked
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 cup broccoli florets roasted
  • 1 cup sweet potato cubed and roasted
  • 2 tbsp olive oil for roasting
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • Grill Pan
  • Baking Sheet

Method
 

  1. Preheat the grill pan over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
  3. While the chicken is grilling, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). On a baking sheet, toss the broccoli florets and sweet potato cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  4. Once the chicken is cooked and the vegetables are roasted, slice the chicken and plate it with the roasted vegetables and quinoa. Add a few cherry tomato halves for a burst of color and freshness.
