I love the unusual combination of flavors in this one-dish meal. It’s easy enough to make for a weeknight dinner and particularly colorful if made with red quinoa.
1 ½ cups (375 mL) reduced-sodium chicken or vegetable stock or water
½ cup (125 mL) coconut milk
¼ cup (50 mL) dry-roasted peanuts
1 Tablespoon (15 mL) olive oil
12 ounces (375g) pork tenderloin, thinly sliced
2 leeks, white parts only, cleaned and sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 chile pepper, minced
2 teaspoons (10mL) ground cumin
½ teaspoon (5 mL) salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 can (14 ounces or 398 mL) no-salt-added diced tomatoes with juice
1 cup (250 mL) quinoa, rinsed and drained
1 cup (250 mL) sliced green beans
