Quinoa Crusted Quail Slider
Ingredients:
1 pack of quail breasts
1 cup quinoa, tricolor if available
1 large egg
Baking flour, 1/2 cup
Grated parmesan cheese, ½ cup
Fresh chopped parsley, 1 tablespoon
Vegetable oil, ½ cup
Cole slaw salad
6 bread rolls
Directions:
Soak quinoa in water for one hour (or the night before). Then rinse, and cook in a pan with 2 cups of water. When it starts to boil reduce to a minimum, cover the pan with a lid, and cook for 20 minutes, or until quinoa is dry-looking. Do not burn.
In three separate bowls, pour the large egg and lightly mix. In another bowl, place the baking flour, and in the third, combine 1 cup of cooked quinoa with the parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil. Generously season the quail breasts with salt and pepper. Take one breast, lightly coat it with flour, dip it into the egg mix, and then coat it with the quinoa mix. Make sure each breast is fully covered with the quinoa mix. Immediately fry each quail breast following the same process.
Put the quinoa-crusted quail breast in each dinner roll and place on top with cole slaw.
