Ingredients
    2 cups plus ¼ cup  vegetable or chicken stock, or water (divided use)
    1 teaspoon  kosher salt, plus more to taste
    1 cup  quinoa, rinsed in cool water
    1 teaspoon  extra-virgin olive oil
    1 teaspoon  minced shallots
    1 teaspoon  minced garlic
    1 cup  sweet corn, roasted and cut off the cob
    ½ cup  diced roasted poblano or Hatch chile
    ½ teaspoon  ground cumin
    ¼ teaspoon  paprika
    Pinch  cayenne pepper
      Black pepper

Directions
Bring 2 cups stock to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add 1 teaspoon salt. Stir in the quinoa and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 15 to 18 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed. Drain and transfer to a sheet pan to cool; do not rinse. (Quinoa may be prepared to this point up to 3 days ahead and kept refrigerated in a tightly covered container.)

Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and sauté the shallots and garlic to bring out their flavor; do not caramelize. Add the corn and diced pepper; sauté 1 minute. Add the quinoa, cumin, paprika and cayenne; mix well. Add the remaining ¼ cup stock, stir to moisten. Cook until the stock has evaporated and soaked into the grain. Adjust seasonings; add salt and pepper to taste. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
