High-Protein Chicken & Quinoa Bowl for Athletes

This is a straightforward training-day bowl — lean chicken, fluffy quinoa, and a mix of colorful vegetables that comes together in under thirty minutes.

Chicken breast delivers a substantial amount of protein per serving, which matters for anyone whose routine includes regular training or recovery, and quinoa adds both carbohydrates for fuel and a smaller dose of plant protein on top. Garlic powder and paprika keep the chicken flavorful without relying on a heavy sauce, and the steamed broccoli, bell pepper, and carrots round the plate out with fiber and color.

Make a double batch and portion it into containers for easy meals through the week. Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to three days, making this an easy one to prep in bulk on a Sunday for grab-and-go lunches through the week.
