Garlic Shrimp and Quinoa Bowl
Pan-seared shrimp tossed in a vibrant garlic-lemon sauce served over fluffy quinoa with wilted spinach for a light yet satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Shrimp
0.5 cup Quinoa
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
3 clove Garlic
2 cup Baby spinach
1 tbsp Lemon juice
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water and cook according to package instructions until tender and fluffy.
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear, then season with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the shrimp to the skillet in a single layer and cook for 2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
Lower the heat to medium and stir in the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the baby spinach to the skillet and toss gently with the shrimp until the leaves are just wilted.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley to brighten the flavors.
Place the cooked quinoa in a bowl and top with the garlic shrimp and spinach mixture, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the top.
