  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa

Instructions:

Set your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat to get it hot

Put the cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and mix them together

Spread this mixture out on top of the chicken breasts

As long as the chicken is cooked all the way through and has nice grill marks, it's done

After taking it off the grill, let it rest for a few minutes

Then, cut it into thin slices

Put the cooked quinoa, chopped red bell pepper, chopped red onion, chopped cilantro, mint, toasted almonds, and crumbled feta cheese in a large salad bowl

To make the dressing, put the lemon juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper in a separate small bowl and mix them together with a whisk

Slice the grilled chicken and put it in the salad bowl

Then, pour the dressing over the top

Toss everything together gently to coat all the ingredients with the dressing and mix them all together
