👨‍🍳 Instructions

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat.

Cook and stir garlic in melted butter until just browned, about 5 minutes.

Pour chicken broth into the saucepan; add quinoa and stir.

Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.

Remove saucepan from heat and rest mixture 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
