Instructions

Lemon Garlic Chicken

  1. In a medium bowl combine olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic, lemon, and honey. Whisk to combine.
  2. Place the chicken into a large zipped bag. Pour the marinade mixture over the top, seal the bag, and shake it to make sure that the chicken is coated on all sides.
  3. Place the sealed bag in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, up to 8 hours.
  4. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add chicken and cook 8-10 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Chicken is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Depending on the size and thickness of the chicken breasts, cooking times may vary.
  5. Remove the chicken from the skillet, slice, and tent to keep warm while you assemble the salad.

Assembling the Baja Bowl

  1. Set out two bowls. To each bowl, add ½ cup brown rice and ½ cup quinoa. Toss to combine.
  2. Top each bowl with the black bean and corn salsa, avocado, grape tomatoes, feta cheese, and sliced chicken.
  3. Top with a dollop of sour cream and a drizzle of salsa verde.
  4. Garnish with cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.
