With LAND Essentials

GF, DF & Refined Sugar Free

RECIPE

Ingredients:

2 serves

1 chicken breast

1/2 cup brown rice

1 cup baby spinach

1/2 cup purple cabbage, shredded

1 small Lebanese cucumber, peeled

6 cherry tomatoes, halved

1/2 avocado, sliced

1/4 cup spring onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons unsalted peanuts

2 teaspoons black sesame seeds

Fresh mint to garnish

Lemon Marinade:

1 garlic clove, minced

1 lemon, juice and zest

2 teaspoons LAND Essentials Rise Ritual

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon wholegrain mustard

1 teaspoon baby capers

Pinch of sea salt

Method

Mix all lemon marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Pour marinade mixture over chicken breast in a ziplock bag and store in the refrigerator for a minimum of 30 minutes to marinate.

While the chicken is marinating, preheat the oven to 200ºC and line a tray with baking paper. Bring a medium sized saucepan to the boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook brown rice for 30-35 minutes. Strain water and set the rice aside to cool.

Place chicken and marinade in the oven to cook for 20-25 minutes. Spoon the marinade over the chicken breast halfway through cooking to gain maximum flavour. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes.

Begin building your power bowl with a bed of spinach, brown rice, red cabbage, cucumber, cherry tomatoes and avocado. Place 1/2 of the chicken in each bowl. Garnish with spring onion, peanuts, sesame seeds and mint.

Tip: Keep the leftover juices from the oven baked marinade and pour over each bowl for maximum flavour!
