Instructions

1. 1.
   Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil shimmers, add the chicken strips. Sauté them, stirring occasionally, until they are thoroughly cooked and golden brown on the edges, about 7-8 minutes. Ensure the chicken is no longer pink in the center for safe consumption.
2. 2.
   While the chicken is cooking, prepare the quinoa. If not pre-cooked, rinse it thoroughly under cold water to remove any bitterness. Cook according to package instructions until fluffy. Use a fork to fluff it up before measuring 1/2 cup for serving.
3. 3.
   In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. This creamy element will serve as a refreshing base for the bowl and enhance the dish's protein content.
4. 4.
   Assemble your bowl by placing the quinoa at the base, followed by the yogurt. Top with the golden chicken strips and finish with the avocado slices on the side. The creamy avocado adds healthy fats, balancing the texture and flavors.
5. 5.
   Serve the bowl warm. If you prefer more flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of your favorite herbs or a squeeze of lemon juice. This meal can be enjoyed as a quick, high-protein lunch or dinner, providing sustained energy.
