Garlic Shrimp with Lemon-Herb Quinoa
Succulent shrimp sautéed with aromatic garlic and bright lemon, served over a bed of fluffy herb-infused quinoa and crisp-tender asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz shrimp
0.25 cup quinoa
1 tsp olive oil
2 clove garlic
1 cup asparagus
0.5 whole lemon
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and combine with 0.5 cup water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until fluffy.
While the quinoa cooks, trim the woody ends from the asparagus and cut the spears into 2-inch pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the asparagus, sautéing for 3 to 4 minutes until bright green and tender.
Add the shrimp, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes to the skillet, cooking for 2 minutes per side until the shrimp are opaque and pink.
Stir the cooked quinoa into the skillet and squeeze the juice from the lemon over the mixture.
Season with sea salt and black pepper, then toss with fresh chopped parsley before serving warm.
