A friend made this recipe where we work. He has over the years become careful of what kinds of foods that he offers me.
He sent this email to me so that I could post his recipe ...
"doublej, I just made a kind of stir fry, very simple.
Cook Quinoa as directions indicate, I didn't use chicken or vegetable broth but I'm sure it would be better (in place of water). Also at this altitude (6600 ft.) it took a little less liquid (2 tablespoons or so) and more time.
In large skillet with 1 tablespoon olive oil sauté
1 medium diced shallot
2 cloves diced garlic (or to taste)
1 small diced carrot
After the shallot is translucent add to above mixture
1/3 lb. raw shelled small shrimp patted dry (cut up if large)
When shrimp are just done (light pink) add the cooked Quinoa and stir to heat through, I also added some thawed and drained frozen green peas at this point. This will make a good side dish.
There are almost endless possibilities with the variations.
My only advice is to get the pre-washed Quinoa as I hear
It is quite a chore to rinse off the bitter outer husk."
It was really good. Next time I will eat more!!
