Quinoa Grain Bowl with sherry vinegar

Method

1. Start by prepping your mixed greens, olive oil, lemon so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the yellow onion and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Turn the heat up, add the quinoa, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Stir in the fresh basil along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Pour in the cream, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a squeeze of lemon right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
