Cooking Recipe Quinoa-Sunchoke Pilaf

Recipe Ingredients

1/2 c Quinoa
2 tb Oil
1/2 c Chopped onion
1 1/4 c Vegetable (or chicken) broth
3/4 c Chickpeas, cooked or canned (drained and rinsed)
1 c Peeled, chopped sunchokes
1/2 c Peas, fresh or frozen

Directions

Place the quinoa in a large bowl; fill with cold water. Pour into a
strainer, then return the quinoa to the bowl and rinse 4 times more.
Drain well.

Heat the oil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the
rinsed quinoa and cook, stirring, until it cracks and pops, about 3
to 5 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until the onion is
soft.

Add the vegetable broth and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the
chickpeas, sunchokes, peas, and pepper, and return to a boil. Reduce
the heat and simmer, covered, 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
