A quick and nutritious grilled chicken and broccoli bowl drizzled with a creamy garlic sauce, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups Broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Heavy cream or half-and-half
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese or nutritional yeast
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups Cooked rice or quinoa

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Combine olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well. Let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
  3. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  4. Sauté the broccoli in olive oil over medium heat for about 5-6 minutes until tender.
  5. Heat the heavy cream over medium heat in a saucepan, then stir in Parmesan cheese and lemon juice. Cook until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
  6. Serve grilled chicken and broccoli over rice or quinoa, drizzled with creamy garlic sauce.

Notes

For best results, marinate the chicken longer and use fresh broccoli. Feel free to add red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
