Instructions
- Trim the chicken of fat and pound to about ½ inch thickness.
- Prepare marinade by whisking all marinade ingredients together. Reserve ¼ cup of marinade for drizzling on finished grain bowls. Put chicken and marinade into a Rubbermaid Brilliance container and marinate for at least four hours or overnight.
- When ready to grill, preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grease the clean grates with a paper towel dipped in olive oil. Cook chicken for about 8-10 minutes per side or until meat thermometer registers 165 degrees F. Put on a plate and cover with foil. Let chicken rest a few minutes before slicing.
- Drizzle vegetables with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Cook over medium-high heat for about 12-15 minutes or until cooked through.
- Assemble the grain bowls. Put ½ - 1 cup of cooked quinoa in bottom of container. Add roasted vegetables and one chicken breast on top. Drizzle with a bit of remaining (clean) reserved marinade and top with feta and fresh basil. They are also delicious with balsamic dressing.
- Store in fridge for the week. Add sliced avocado right before serving.
