Recipe Summary One Skillet Mexican Quinoa

With a large family, I love these one skillet dishes where, for at least 15 minutes, I can 'set it and forget it!' And the kids love it! Serve it for Cinco de Mayo or any night of the week!

Ingredients | Cinco De Mayo Squishmallow

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 jalapeno pepper, chopped

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

1 (14.5 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes

1 cup yellow corn

1 cup quinoa

1 cup chicken broth

1 tablespoon red pepper flakes, or to taste

1 ½ teaspoons chili powder

½ teaspoon cumin

1 pinch kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste

1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and diced

1 lime, juiced

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute jalapeno pepper and garlic in hot oil until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir black beans, tomatoes, yellow corn, quinoa, and chicken broth into skillet; season with red pepper flakes, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, cover the skillet with a lid, reduce heat to low, and simmer until quinoa is tender and liquid is mostly absorbed, about 20 minutes. Stir avocado, lime juice, and cilantro into quinoa until combined.

For a little more heat, stir in 1 tablespoon of Sriracha sauce. For a vegetarian dish, use vegetable stock instead of chicken.
