Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 cup quinoa
½ cup chopped scallions
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon sea salt
4 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
non-stick cooking spray
½ avocado
¼ cup plain non-fat Greek-style yogurt
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
½ teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Bring chicken broth to a boil in a saucepan. Stir quinoa into the broth and bring again to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and broth has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Stir scallions and 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice into the quinoa.
  • Mix paprika, cumin, onion powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and sea salt together in a small bowl; rub onto chicken breasts to season completely.
  • Prepare a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.
  • Lay chicken breasts into the hot skillet, cover skillet with a lid, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Blend avocado, yogurt, 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice, and garlic powder in a food processor until smooth.
  • Spread quinoa onto a serving platter. Arrange chicken breasts onto the platter. Drizzle avocado cream sauce over the chicken breasts.
