Ingredients

For the Green Goddess Chicken:
  • 2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 4-5 breasts)
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp Green Goddess or Italian seasoning
  • 2 tsp dried tarragon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
For All the Bowls:
  • 3.5 cups cooked golden quinoa (630g) can sub for rice, couscous, pasta or any grain of choice!
  • 1.75 cup shelled edamame (259g) I used Seapoint Farms Shelled Soybeans Edamame
  • 1 batch Green Goddess Chicken
  • 1 batch Green Goddess Dressing
  • avocado slices optional for topping
  • mixed greens like kale or spinach, optional, for more volume
To Assemble Each Bowl (makes 7):
  • 1/2 cup cooked golden quinoa (90g)
  • 1/4 cup shelled edamame (37g)
  • 1/7 Green Goddess Chicken (137g)
  • 2 Tbsp Green Goddess Dressing (30g)
  • avocado slices optional for topping

Instructions

To Make the Green Goddess Chicken:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. Trim chicken breast. If uneven, pound to even thickness to ensure chicken cooks evenly. Butterfly if chicken is thick or if you just prefer thinner chicken. Pat chicken dry with a paper towel. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle seasonings on top. Using your hands, toss well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
  3. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Prep for the Rest of the Bowls:
  1. Combine all the ingredients for the Green Goddess dressing together in a food processor. Taste and add more salt, mayo, or seasonings to taste. Store in the fridge until ready to use.
  2. Meanwhile, cook quinoa in a large pot according to package directions.
  3. Microwave edamame if eating immediately, or go ahead and defrost to assemble in bowls if meal prepping.
To Assemble Each Bowl:
  1. Add the quinoa, edamame, and chicken to a bowl or container (amount for each listed above). Drizzle with green goddess dressing. Add sliced avocado or greens for more volume, if desires. You can also store any side greens and/or your green goddess dressing in a separate container if you prefer for easier heating.
