Ingredients

  • 2 minced green onions or shallots
  • 1 garlic
  • 2 chicken stock
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped, fresh parsley
  • salt and fresh ground pepper
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 8 sun-dried, diced tomatoes - not the oil-packed ones

Directions

Place quinoa in a fine-meshed sieve and rinse under warm running water for a minute or so. Set aside.
Heat butter in a heavy, medium saucepan over medium heat. Add tomatoes, shallots and garlic and saute for 3-5 minutes, or until shallots are softened. Add stock or water and bring to a boil. Stir in quinoa and cayenne, return to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for about 30 minutes (this may take less time) until all liquid is absorbed.l Let sit for 5 minutes and fluff grains with a fork to separate. Stir in fresh parsley and season with salt and pepper.

Note

great, old standby
