Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Cook the quinoa
- Rinse the quinoa.
In a small sauce pot, combine the quinoa and 1 cup [2 cups] lightly salted water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the quinoa is tender and the water is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork, cover, and keep warm. Meanwhile, prepare the rest of the meal.
2
Prep and start cooking the seafood
Salmon:
Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel; season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the salmon, skin side down, and cook until the skin is browned and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is starting to turn opaque but not yet cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes.
Shrimp:
Rinse and drain the shrimp. Pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the shrimp and cook, turning once, until starting to turn firm but not yet cooked through, about 1 minute per side.
Transfer the seafood to a plate and cover to keep warm. Do not clean the pan.
While the seafood is cooking, prepare the remaining ingredients.
3
Prep the remaining ingredients
- Peel and coarsely chop the onion.
- Drain the tomatoes over a small bowl, reserving the juices. Transfer the tomatoes to another small bowl and mash with a fork, then add to the reserved juices.
- Coarsely chop the cilantro for garnish.
4
Make the tikka masala sauce; finish cooking the seafood
In the same pan used for the seafood, if dry, add 2 teaspoons [4 tsp] oil. Warm over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the curry powder, granulated garlic, and tikka masala spice blend and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the tomatoes and juices and ¼ cup [½ cup] water and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the coconut milk and seafood and bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until thickened and the seafood is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
Serve
Transfer the quinoa to individual bowls. Top with the seafood and spoon over the tikka masala sauce. Garnish with the cilantro and serve.
