Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the red cabbage and sweetcorn, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Stir-fry the king prawns over high heat for 2-3 minutes until pink and curled.

  4. 4

    Toss the protein and onion in fajita seasoning and cook over high heat until charred. Finish with lime juice and spoon salsa over the top.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the red cabbage and sweetcorn for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: quinoa first, then the veg and king prawns, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh coriander.
