Directions: |
Directions:Place a large pot on medium heat. Add the olive oil and the onions and sweat for a few minutes. Add the garlic and the jalapeņo and continue to cook them for several minutes until soft. Add the quinoa and spices continuously stirring to coat. Once fully incorporated, add the water or stock and bring to a boil. Cover the pot and reduce to a simmer. In a separate bowl combine the lime juice, vinegar, tomatoes, corn, and black beans. After the quinoa cooks for about 10-15 minutes add the ingredients from the bowl and let it rest on top of the quinoa. Do not mix. Let sit for 5-10 minutes or until the quinoa absorbs most of the moisture and becomes translucent. Turn off the heat and move the quinoa salsa to the bowl. Add the cilantro and mix thoroughly. Season to taste and serve. |
