List of Ingredients




1/3 cup(s) slivered almonds
1 teaspoon(s) vegetable oil
2 thick slices of applewood-smoked bacon, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 small shallot, minced
1 cup(s) quinoa, rinsed
2 cup(s) chicken stock
1 sprig(s) sage
1 tablespoon(s) minced chives
1 tablespoon(s) chopped parsley
Salt and freshly ground white pepper


Recipe



Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread the almonds in a pie plate and toast in the oven until golden brown, 4 minutes; let cool.
In a medium saucepan, heat the oil. Add the bacon and cook over moderately high heat until the fat has rendered, about 2 minutes. Add the shallot and cook, stirring a few times, until softened but not browned, about 1 minute. Add the quinoa, stock, and sage and bring to a boil. Cover and cook over low heat until the stock has been absorbed, about 17 minutes. Remove the quinoa from the heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Discard the sage and fluff the quinoa with a fork. Stir in the chives, parsley, and toasted almonds. Season the quinoa with salt and pepper and serve.
