1. Cook the quinoa (usually in twice its volume of salted water, until tender).
2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and herbs of your choice, then roast them in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 25 minutes.
3. While the chicken is roasting, cut the vegetables to accompany the dish: bell peppers and cherry tomatoes.
4. Ten minutes before the chicken is done cooking, add them to the dish in the oven.
5. Once the quinoa is cooked, drain it and mix it with a drizzle of olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to enhance the flavor.
6. Serve the sliced chicken on a bed of quinoa and garnish with the roasted vegetables. Add a touch of freshly chopped parsley for color and freshness.
