Spicy Baked Peppers With Quinoa And Corn Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven control to broil. Line cookie sheet with foil. Place poblano chiles on cookie sheet. Broil 8 minutes, turning once, until blackened. Place blackened chiles in bowl; cover tightly. Let stand 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place corn and onion on same cookie sheet. Broil 10 minutes, stirring after 5 minutes.
• Peel off charred skin from blackened chiles; coarsely chop chiles. Place in medium bowl. Add broiled corn and onion, oil, lime juice, oregano, cumin, salt and pepper. Add tomatoes and cooked quinoa; toss.
• Heat oven to 350°F. Cut each bell pepper in half; remove seeds and membranes (leave stem on, if desired). Fill pepper halves with quinoa mixture; sprinkle evenly with cheese. Place on cookie sheet.
• Bake 15 minutes or until peppers are tender and stuffing is hot.

Steps:

• Cook 1/2 cup red quinoa as the label directs. Put 3 shucked ears of corn in a bowl with a few tablespoons of water; loosely cover and microwave until tender, about 3 minutes. Cool, then cut off the kernels. Toss the quinoa and corn with 1 chopped large heirloom tomato, 2 sliced scallions, 3 tablespoons each olive oil and lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a pinch of cayenne.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the shallot and garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the peppers and quinoa and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the broth and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 20 minutes or until the quinoa is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Stir in the parsley. Season, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes; add chopped red pepper and continue to cook and stir until slightly tender, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir quinoa with the onion mixture. Pour vegetable broth into the saucepan; season with chipotle pepper powder and cayenne pepper. Bring the broth to a boil. Cover the saucepan, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the quinoa is tender, about 20 minutes.
• Stir black beans and corn into the quinoa mixture; simmer until the beans and corn are heated through, about 5 minutes more.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, cayenne, and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add corn and tomatoes; cook, stirring often, until corn is tender and tomatoes have softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in milk; remove from heat. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium-high heat in a skillet with a lid. Once oil is hot, add the corn and yellow pepper. Season with salt and fresh-ground pepper, then cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies soften and corn begins to brown (10 minutes or so).
• Add the quinoa and stir. Continue cooking for a couple minutes. When quinoa starts popping and getting toasted, add the stock or water and bring to a boil. Stir one more time, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook covered and undisturbed for 15 minutes.
• Uncover and check quinoa for doneness. If the grains are still hard, make sure there's still enough liquid to keep the bottom of the pan moist, cover and cook for another 5 minutes.
• When the quinoa is ready, remove from the heat and taste for seasonings. Add more salt and pepper if needed, then add the chopped herbs for garnish. This can be served warm, or it can be allowed to cool to room temperature before serving.

Steps:

• Cook quinoa in chicken broth according to package directions.
• In a large flatbottom skillet sauté onions, garlic, bell peppers and jalapenos.
• Add rest of ingredients and cook until warmed through.
• Fluff quinoa when it's done and add to skillet with everything else.
• Transfer to a stone bakeware pan sprayed lightly with cooking spray.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
• Serve with additional salsa & top with shredded cheese, if desired.
