  • ½ bunches Kale, Cut Into 2-inch Ribbons
  • 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Preparation

Cook the quinoa in boiling water until tender and it becomes little spirals, about 20 minutes. Drain remaining water if needed.

Season shrimp with salt and pepper.

Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add the shrimp and sear 2 minutes on one side. Flip and sear 30 more seconds. Remove from pan and set aside.

Back in the skillet, add the garlic; bloom 30 seconds. Toss in the red bell pepper and kale, saute 2 minutes.
