Jalapeño, corn, and smoked paprika kick up the flavor of this vegetarian Tex-Mex dinner.
- Place rack in top position of oven. Heat oven to 425°F. Heat large cast-iron skillet over medium heat; coat with oil. Add onion, garlic, jalapeño, and corn. Cook 5−7 min. until fragrant and onion is translucent.
- In bowl, whisk together paprika, chili powder, cumin, and salt; whisk in tomato paste and lime juice, then broth.
- Add beans, canned tomatoes, quinoa, and broth mixture to skillet. Mix well and bring just to a boil. Cover with lid and reduce heat to simmer. Keep covered for about 15−20 min. until quinoa has absorbed liquid and can be fluffed with fork. If using cheese, cover quinoa with cheese and place in oven uncovered for 3−5 min. until bubbly and slightly golden. Serve hot with avocado and cilantro, if desired.
