Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup dry quinoa
2 cups water (or broth)
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
3 1/2 tablespoons tamari (wheat free, or Braggs)
2 1/2 tablespoons agave nectar (or sub other sweetener of your choice)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice (adjust to your taste)
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
3 tablespoons green onions, finely sliced

Steps:

  • Rinse quinoa very well in cold water for a few minutes to remove its bitter outer layer.
  • In a saucepan add quinoa, water (or broth) and garlic. Bring to boil, stir and then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for about 12 minutes until done.
  • While the quinoa cooks, mix together the ginger, tamari, agave nectar, lemon juice and sesame oil.
  • Once the quinoa is done, turn off the heat and stir in the tamari mixture. Cover again and let sit for about 5 minutes.
  • Stir again and sprinkle with the sesame seeds and green onions. Serve!

This teriyaki quinoa dish is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some leftover broccoli and carrots and they worked perfectly in this dish.

I followed the recipe exactly and the quinoa turned out mushy. I think I would have preferred to cook it for less time.

This teriyaki quinoa dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less pineapple or maybe a different type of sauce.
