Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 medium Onion
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
Instructions
Start by prepping the cauliflower rice. Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse them in a food processor until it resembles rice grains. You should have about 4 cups of cauliflower rice.
Finely mince the garlic and dice the onion.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and diced onion, sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and stir well to combine with the garlic and onion.
Season with salt and pepper, then pour in the chicken broth.
Cook the cauliflower rice for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender and most of the liquid has evaporated.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the lime juice and chopped cilantro.
Serve immediately as a side dish or a light main course.
