How to Make Bison Quinoa Hash
Step 1
First things first, let’s cook our quinoa and brown rice according to the instructions. Once they’re ready, set them aside for later.
Step 2
Heat up a deep skillet over medium heat. Once it’s nice and hot, add in the olive oil, minced garlic, diced onions, and bell pepper. Let them sauté for about 2 to 3 minutes until they’re nice and fragrant.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to add in the star of the show – the lean ground bison. As it cooks in the skillet, make sure to chop it up into smaller pieces. Sprinkle in the chili powder to give it that extra kick. Cook it up for about 4 to 6 minutes until you no longer see any pink pieces.
Step 4
Once the bison is cooked through, it’s time to add in the cooked quinoa, brown rice, and drained red kidney beans. Fold everything together in the skillet until it’s well mixed.
Step 5
Don’t forget about the green chiles! Add them into the mix and give everything one final stir to incorporate all those delicious flavors.
Step 6
