Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Rinse and prepare the fresh grilled chicken breast and cooked farro, patting dry with clean paper towels.
2
Warm extra-virgin olive oil over medium-low heat (325Β°F / 165Β°C) so its delicate liver-protective polyphenols do not smoke.
3
Add grilled chicken breast, cucumber, and hummus, cooking gently for 12 minutes until tender and fragrant.
4
Incorporate cooked farro and tomatoes, tossing for 2–3 minutes until heated through and vibrant.
5
Serve warm with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice to boost glutathione and bile flow.

πŸ’‘ Chef Tips for Best Results

  • βœ“Always use cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) rather than butter or refined seed oils to lower liver enzymes (ALT/AST).
  • βœ“The antioxidants and omega-3s in grilled chicken breast and tomatoes help reduce hepatic oxidative stress.
  • βœ“Avoid adding table sugar or white flour sides; pair with leafy greens or cruciferous vegetables.

🧊 Storage, Freezing & Safe Reheating

Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container at 40Β°F (4Β°C) for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat to 165Β°F (74Β°C) before serving.
