Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Garlic Butter Quinoa.
Step 1
Begin by heating a generous amount of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat until it melts into a golden pool.
Step 2
Next, introduce minced garlic to the bubbling butter, allowing it to sauté until it reaches a delightful golden brown hue, which should take about five minutes.
Step 3
Once the garlic is fragrant and beautifully colored, pour in the chicken broth and gently stir in the quinoa, ensuring everything is well combined.
Step 4
Bring this aromatic mixture to a lively boil, then lower the heat to a gentle simmer.
Step 5
Cover the saucepan and let it work its magic for approximately fifteen minutes, or until the quinoa has absorbed all the liquid.
Step 6
When the time is up, remove the saucepan from the heat but keep it covered for an additional five minutes to let the flavors meld.
Step 7
Finally, take a fork and fluff the quinoa, revealing its light and airy texture, ready to be served as a delicious side or a wholesome main dish.

Enjoy the delightful aroma and taste that fills your kitchen!.
