Prep Time: 15 minutes minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes minutes
Course: Main Course
Servings: 4 (click to scale)

Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa dry
  • 2 cups vegetable stock low sodium
  • 2 cups edamame shelled
  • 1 Tbsp fresh lemon zest
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp fresh tarragon chopped
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup canned roasted red peppers drained
  • 1/4 cup walnuts chopped

Instructions

  • Toast quinoa in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until it becomes aromatic and begins to crackle, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a fine sieve (strainer) and rinse thoroughly.
  • Meanwhile, bring broth to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the quinoa and return to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to a simmer and cook gently for 8 minutes. Remove the lid and without disturbing the quinoa, add thawed edamame. Cover and continue to cook until the edamame and quinoa are tender, 7 to 8 minutes longer. Drain any remaining liquid, if necessary.
  • Whisk lemon zest, lemon juice, oil, tarragon and salt in a bowl. Add peppers and the quinoa mixture. Toss to combine. Divide among 4 plates and top with walnuts.
