Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup quinoa
2 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon curry powder, or to taste
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring until soft, about 2 minutes. Add quinoa and cook, adding more oil if the pan seems dry. Stir until quinoa is lightly toasted, about 5 minutes.
Add broth to the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Add curry and chile powder. Cover and simmer until broth evaporates and quinoa is tender, about 25 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
