Ingredients
1 cup quinoa
2 teaspoons butter
1 cup water
1 cup vegetable or chicken broth
salt, to taste
1 poblano pepper, roasted
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Melt the butter over medium heat in a medium sized saucepan. Add the quinoa to the saucepan and cook, stirring often, until the quinoa is golden, about 5 minutes.
Add the water, broth, and salt and bring to a boil. Cover and turn heat to low. Simmer on low for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, turn the heat off but leave the lid on and let sit for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, roast the poblano pepper (see tips for how to roast peppers). After removing the charred skin, stem and seeds (if desired - I don't like mine too hot so I remove the seeds), puree the pepper using a blender or small food processor.
Using a fork, fluff the quinoa and stir in the pureed poblano and chopped cilantro.
