Crunchy Quinoa Recipes

Steps:

• Pour the quinoa onto a towel and blot to remove any excess moisture.
• Combine quinoa, breadcrumbs, salt, garlic powder and paprika in a shallow bowl. Whisk the eggs together in another shallow bowl. Dip the chicken into the egg, and then into the quinoa mixture, pressing evenly to coat.
• Add a thin coat of olive oil to large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken in batches and cook until quinoa is golden and chicken is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Serve with lemon yogurt dipping sauce and roasted cauliflower on the side.
• Combine the yogurt, lemon juice, parsley, mustard, garlic powder and salt in a bowl and mix well.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place cauliflower on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt. Bake until golden, 35 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Place the quinoa on a clean kitchen towel and blot to remove any excess moisture. Transfer the quinoa to a shallow bowl. Add the breadcrumbs, salt, garlic powder and paprika. Stir to combine well.
• In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs.
• Dip the chicken into the egg and then into the quinoa mixture, pressing evenly to coat.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a thin coat of oil and working in batches, if necessary, cook the chicken tenders in a single layer until the quinoa is golden and the chicken is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove to a plate and serve with ketchup and mustard.

Steps:

• Rinse the quinoa well and place it in a pot with the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, stir in the pieces of lemon zest, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir, and remove and discard the pieces of lemon zest. Allow the quinoa to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, put a large pot of water on the stove to boil, drop the asparagus and snow peas into the boiling water, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until crisp-tender (do not overcook; the vegetables should still be slightly firm). Remove from the pot with a slotted spoon and drop into a bowl of ice water. Drain. Combine the cooked quinoa, asparagus, snow peas, kohlrabi, and radishes in a large bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Season with freshly ground black pepper and sea salt, if desired. Chill for 1 to 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to mingle.
