# How To Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a large bowl, combine bell peppers, zucchini, red onion, and carrots with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated. Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
03 - Place in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking, until tender with light caramelization at the edges.
04 - While vegetables roast, combine rinsed quinoa, vegetable broth, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork.
05 - Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Rub evenly with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper on all sides.
06 - Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add seasoned chicken breasts and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Transfer to a cutting board and rest for 5 minutes. Slice into bite-sized pieces.
07 - In a salad bowl, combine mixed greens and sliced cucumber. Dress with fresh lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to combine.
08 - Divide cooked quinoa among four serving bowls as the base. Top each bowl with roasted vegetables, sliced chicken, a portion of lemon salad, and fresh avocado slices. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
