Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Basil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Directions
Step 1
Remove the leaves and core from the cauliflower. Cut it into medium-sized florets.
Step 2
Using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they are the size of rice grains. Be mindful not to over-process to prevent the cauliflower from becoming mushy.
Step 3
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. Finely chop the parsley, basil, and thyme leaves.
Step 4
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Add the riced cauliflower to the skillet, stirring well to combine with the garlic and oil.
Step 6
Cook the cauliflower for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it's slightly tender. Avoid overcooking to maintain a rice-like texture.
Step 7
Stir in the chopped parsley, basil, and thyme, ensuring even distribution throughout the cauliflower rice.
Step 8
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Add a splash of lemon juice for a fresh burst of flavor.
Step 9
Mix well and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the herbs to infuse thoroughly with the cauliflower rice.
Step 10
Serve warm as a low-carb side dish or as a base for your favorite keto-friendly meals.
