Preheat grill or broiler. Make the quinoa by heating a medium
sauce pot over moderate heat and melting butter. Add vermicelli and
cook, stirring often, until pasta has turned golden-brown. Add onion
and saute a few more minutes until onion is soft and begins to turn
golden. Add Chicken Stock or water and bring to a boil and add
quinoa. Return to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, covered,
20 to 30 minutes or until the grains are soft in the center. Heat
olive oil in a large sauce pot over medium heat. Add julienned onions
and saute 3 to 5 minutes or until edges begin to turn golden color.
Add garlic and cook an additional minute or two, stirring, then add
paprika and cumin and cook 1 minute. Add julienned peppers, chiles
and chicken stock and cook 10 to15 minutes or until mixture thickens.
Adjust with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, grill the chorizo links
about 8 to10 minutes over a moderately-hot fire or broiler, turning
often until cooked through to the center. To serve, place chorizo on
a bed of the quinoa pilaf and top with the pepper mixture. This
recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
