Coconut Quinoa with Harissa-Roasted Sweet Potatoes image

The coconut milk and sweet potatoes help tame the heat from the harissa in this flavorful meal. If you use low-sodium chicken broth, be sure to add a little salt to the quinoa while it's cooking.

2 cups 1/2-inch diced sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons harissa
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
2 teaspoons oil
1 shallot, minced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 cup quinoa
1 cup coconut milk
1 cup chicken broth
