Baked Honey Mustard Chicken Breast With Mediterranean-Style Quinoa

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air

Boil a kettle and rinse your quinoa in a sieve under cold running water

Add your quinoa to a large pot with plenty of boiled water and bring to the boil over a high heat, once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 6-10 min or until all the quinoa is tender

Once cooked, drain, return it to the pot until serving

Meanwhile, zest half your lemon[s] (try to grate lightly with a micro-plane or sharp box grater and avoid grating the white pith, as this is very bitter)

Roll the lemon[s] with your hand on a hard surface (to release more juice) and cut in half

Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Combine the chopped garlic, honey, wholegrain mustard, dried oregano and 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] vegetable oil with the juice of half your lemon[s] in a small bowl

Season with a generous pinch of salt – this is your honey mustard marinade

Add your chicken to a baking tray (or two!) (use tin foil to avoid mess!) and drizzle over the honey mustard marinade, then give everything a good mix up

Put the tray[s] in the oven for 18-20 min or until cooked through (no pink meat!) – this is your baked honey mustard chicken

Whilst the chicken and quinoa are cooking, chop your cucumber into quarters lengthways, then slice finely

Roughly chop your tomato[es]

Peel and slice your shallot[s] finely

Chop your parsley finely, including the stalks

Add the chopped cucumber, chopped tomatoes, sliced shallot and the lemon zest to a large bowl

Add a drizzle of olive oil with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and toss – this is your Mediterranean-style salad

Once the quinoa is cooked, add the chopped parsley and chicken stock mix and stir everything together – this is your Mediterranean-style quinoa

Cut the remaining lemon into 1 wedge per person
