The Chef: Beto Quiroz
The Restaurant: Bravo! Peruvian Cuisine, Fort Lauderdale
The Dish: Quinotto with Grilled Salmon
Ingredients:
1 lb. Salmon filets
3 cups Cooked quinoa
1/2 cup Chopped onions
2 tbsp. Aji amarillo paste
1 tbsp. Garlic puree

Method of Preparation for Quinotto:
- Heat olive oil and onion in a pan oil and until onion is soft and golden, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook 1 minute longer before adding the pre-cooked quinoa and occasionally stirring.

- Turn off the heat and adjust seasonings. Add more salt if needed.
- The quinotto will thicken as it sits. If this happens, add in a splash or two of vegetable broth.
