Great for a quick-but-healthy side dish. White cooking wine can be used instead of 1 tablespoon water at the end of cooking.

Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

⅔ cup water
⅓ cup quinoa
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped kale
1 clove garlic, minced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon water, or as needed

Steps:

  • Bring 2/3 cup water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; saute kale and garlic in the hot oil until kale is wilted, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Stir quinoa into kale mixture and add sesame oil; cook until flavors blend, about 5 more minutes. Add 1 tablespoon water to mixture to keep from sticking.
