Mediterranean Chicken and Oat Bowl

Step by step

Method

1. 01

   Season the diced chicken breast with 1g salt and 0.5g black pepper.

2. 02

   Heat 10g olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.

3. 03

   In the same pan, add the finely diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

4. 04

   Add the oats and milk to a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the milk is absorbed and oats are tender. Stir occasionally.

5. 05

   While oats are cooking, prepare the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice and zest, remaining 10g olive oil, 1g salt, and 0.5g black pepper. Whisk well.

6. 06

   In a large bowl, combine the diced bell pepper, cucumber, tomato, halved olives, and chopped parsley.

7. 07

   Once the oats are cooked, divide them between two serving bowls. Top with the cooked chicken and the fresh vegetable mixture.

8. 08

   Drizzle the lemon vinaigrette over each bowl. Serve immediately.
