Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a bowl, mix lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, olive oil, herbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and let them marinate for at least 15–20 minutes.
  3. Heat a grill pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Cook each chicken breast about 5–7 minutes per side, until fully cooked through and golden brown.
  5. In a separate pan, steam or sauté the mixed veggies with a little olive oil for about 5–8 minutes, until tender but still crisp.
  6. Place the grilled chicken on a plate with the veggies and garnish with fresh parsley or extra lemon juice.

Notes

Lean protein helps keep you full while vegetables add fiber and nutrients with low calories. Fill at least half your plate with veggies at every meal.
