Zesty Garlic Shrimp with Fluffy Quinoa
Sautéed succulent shrimp and crisp asparagus tossed in a vibrant garlic-lemon glaze served over a bed of light, fluffy quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Shrimp
0.25 cup Quinoa
0.5 cup Water
0.5 tbsp Olive oil
1 cup Asparagus
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and combine with water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer covered for 15 minutes.
While the quinoa cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the asparagus to the skillet and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until the spears are tender-crisp and bright green.
Push the asparagus to the sides of the pan and add the shrimp, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes to the center.
Cook the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes per side until they become pink, opaque, and slightly curled.
Stir in the lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper, tossing the shrimp and asparagus together to coat them in the zesty pan juices.
Fluff the cooked quinoa with a fork and serve it as a base for the garlic shrimp and asparagus.
