Spicy Quinoa Recipe

Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water.

In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil.

Add the quinoa and reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the quinoa is tender.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Add the chopped onion, jalapeno pepper, and garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

Add the cooked quinoa to the skillet and stir to combine with the onion mixture.

Add the cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the quinoa with the spices.

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Remove from heat and garnish with chopped cilantro.

Serve hot with lime wedges on the side.
