⏱️ Cooking Time: 20 minutes | 🍽️ Servings: 1

Instructions

  1. 1.
    Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat and brush it with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking. Place the thinly sliced turkey breast on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until the meat is cooked through and exhibits grill marks. Turkey should reach an internal temperature of 165°F to ensure it's fully cooked.
  2. 2.
    While the turkey is grilling, prepare your quinoa by cooking it according to package instructions if it isn't cooked already. Fluff the quinoa with a fork and set aside, covering it to keep warm.
  3. 3.
    In a small bowl, mix the plain Greek yogurt with a pinch of salt and pepper. This will serve as a simple, creamy dressing to complement the dish's flavors. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
  4. 4.
    Slice the avocado thinly for topping. If you desire added creaminess, gently mash the avocado slices with the back of a fork before topping them on your dish.
  5. 5.
    To assemble, place the warm quinoa on a plate as a base. Layer the grilled turkey slices on top. Drizzle with Greek yogurt sauce and finish with avocado slices. Serve immediately for a fresh, high-protein meal.
