6 servings

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste, divided
  • 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
  • 1 ½ teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
  • ¾ teaspoon ground coriander
  • ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper (Optional)
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • ground black pepper, or to taste
  • 1 (15.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 (4.5 ounce) can chopped green chiles
  • 1 (15.5 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 ½ cups uncooked quinoa
  • 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon hummus spread
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • ¼ teaspoon white vinegar
  • 2 green onions, sliced (Optional)
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Spread cherry tomatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle salt and pepper over tomatoes and toss to coat evenly.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until tomatoes blister and pop and skins start to char, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Cook until fragrant, 30 to 60 seconds. Add tomatoes and green chiles; bring to a boil. Reduce stew to a simmer and add chickpeas. Add the cherry tomatoes and their juices. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • While stew simmers, bring 3 cups water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Mix Greek yogurt, hummus, 1 tablespoon water, and vinegar together to make the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the stew over quinoa. Top with the yogurt sauce, green onions, and cilantro.
