Let's start with the carrots: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C.
- 10
Mix the melted butter and the minced garlic (2 cloves) in a bowl.
- 11
Put the peeled carrots on a baking sheet and coat them well with the mixture (I used a brush so it's easier). Roast for 15 minutes.
- 12
While the carrots are in the oven, let's prepare the quinoa:
- 13
Over medium-high heat add a bit of butter in a pot. Cook the minced onion till it becomes transparent and then add the minced garlic (1 clove) for an extra minute (stir regularly so it doesn't burn).
- 14
Add the quinoa, salt and pepper and sauté for 1 minute.
- 15
Add the chicken stock and some water (2 cups or 470ml)
- 16
Cook with the lid on for 20 minutes on medium-low heat.
- 17
The carrots should now have been in the oven for 15 minutes, it's time to add the Parmesan on top and let it roast for another 10 minutes.
- 18
Let's now prepare the shrimps: Over medium-high heat add a bit of butter in a pan. Add the shrimps, salt and pepper and cook till they are pink and slightly brown. Then set aside
- 19
In the now empty pan, add the rest of the butter (2 tablespoons) and the minced garlic clove and let it cook for a couple of minutes.
- 20
Put everything together in a serving dish: Carrots on one side. Quinoa on the other, add the shrimps on top and pour over the butter/garlic sauce and the lemon juice. Top the dish with the chopped parsley and serve.
