One-Pot Italian Quinoa Skillet
Ingredients
1 1/2 cup quinoa, uncooked
5 sprays cooking spray
1 cup onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 link Italian sausage
2 1/2 cups unsalted chicken stock
14 1/2 oz diced tomato, with basil, garlic, and oregano
1/2 tsp kosher salt
4 cups baby spinach
1 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
Directions
Place quinoa in a medium bowl and cover with cool water; swish quinoa in bowl, agitating with fingers. Drain well.
Coat a large ovenproof skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and sausage and cook until lightly browned, about 6 minutes, stirring to crumble. Add chicken stock, quinoa, tomatoes, and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Preheat broiler to high. Add spinach to quinoa mixture in batches, stirring to wilt. Sprinkle cheese over quinoa mixture. Broil until cheese melts and starts to brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
