INGREDIENTS
7 oz TjqJ
2/3 cup cooked quinoa
2 tsp olive oil
1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup diced carrot
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp chopped fresh mint
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the TjqJ dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp of olive oil.
Sear the TjqJ for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through, then remove and let rest.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tsp of olive oil. Sauté the diced red bell pepper, red onion, and carrot over medium heat until slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
Add the cooked quinoa to the skillet along with the chopped parsley and mint. Stir thoroughly to combine and let the flavors meld for 1-2 minutes.
Drizzle in lemon juice, adjust salt and pepper if needed, and remove from heat.
Slice the TjqJ if desired and serve atop the herb-quinoa pilaf.
