Place the quinoa in a large bowl; fill with cold water. Drain into a
strainer and repeat the rinsing and draining 4 more times.
Over medium-high heat, heat the oil in a 2-quart saucepan. Add the
rinsed quinoa and cook, stirring, until the quinoa makes cracking and
popping noises, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the water, marjoram,
thyme, and rosemary. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer,
covered, 15 minutes.
Stir in the parsley, lemon juice, salt, lemon rind, and pepper.
Simmer, covered, 5 minutes longer. Fluff with a fork.
