Cooking Quinoa
1. Rinse the Quinoa
Place the quinoa in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cold water to remove any bitterness.
2. Cook the Quinoa
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.
Preparing the Vegetables
3. Chop the Vegetables
Dice the red bell pepper, onion, tomato, and zucchini into small pieces. Mince the garlic cloves.
4. Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent. Then add the red bell pepper and zucchini, cooking until they are tender. Finally, stir in the tomato.
Seasoning the Dish
5. Add Spices
Sprinkle the cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the sautéed vegetables. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
6. Combine Quinoa and Vegetables
Fluff the cooked quinoa with a fork and then add it to the skillet with the vegetables. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
7. Add Fresh Cilantro
Chop the fresh cilantro and fold it into the quinoa and vegetable mixture.
