Description

This is a copycat recipe of First Watch's pesto chicken quinoa bowl. I think you are really going to enjoy this protein-packed quinoa mixed with grilled chicken, lemon, feta, roasted tomatoes, and shredded carrots. The recipe is quite simple, and the dish is a complete all-in-one meal, so it takes the guesswork out of what side dishes to prepare to ensure a balanced meal of protein, whole grains, and fresh veggies.

Ingredient:

  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
  • Lemon Dressing:
  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Bowl:
  • 2 cups finely chopped cooked chicken
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • 1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
  • 1 (4 ounce) package crumbled feta cheese
  • ½ cup half-and-half
  • ½ cup shredded carrots
  • 1 tablespoon pesto sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
