PREPARATION

  • 1

    Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water and drain. Set aside.

  • 2

    Season the beef sirloin steak generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

  • 3

    Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add half the olive oil. Sear the steak for about 3-4 minutes per side until it reaches your preferred doneness. Remove from the pan and let rest.

  • 4

    In the same pan, add the remaining olive oil along with the diced onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions become translucent.

  • 5

    Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they soften and release their juices, about 3-4 minutes.

  • 6

    Stir in the quinoa and toast it lightly for 1-2 minutes. Then add 2/3 cup water (or low-sodium broth if desired) and bring to a simmer.

  • 7

    Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low, and let the quinoa cook for about 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy.

  • 8

    Slice the rested steak against the grain and serve over a bed of the quinoa mushroom pilaf. Enjoy your meal!
