Add the corn, red and green capsicum, and jalapeño, and cook until softened. Stir in the quinoa, another tablespoon of butter, and the stock. Toss everything together until the corn and quinoa are fully cooked.
Finish with a squeeze of lemon, a dollop of Norco butter, and garnish with tarragon and toasted sunflower seeds.
