Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Let's get cooking!
Cut the chicken breasts into large cubes. Dice the zucchini and bell peppers. You're doing great!
In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, crushed garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Get that flavor going!
Give the meat and veggies a good toss in the spicy marinade, then spread them out on the baking sheet.
Bake it all in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the veggies are nice and roasted.
Meanwhile, give the quinoa a really good rinse in warm water, then cook it in twice the amount of salted water for about 15 minutes.
Once the baked dish is ready, mix it all together with the cooked quinoa in a big bowl.
Before serving, sprinkle with roughly chopped walnuts for that extra crunch and healthy fats.
