Ingredients

• 500 grams Sausage (your choice, such as chicken or pork)
• 500 grams Cauliflower rice
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium Onion, diced
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 2

Add the sausage to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 4

Add the diced bell pepper and onion. Sauté until they soften, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Stir in the cauliflower rice, ensuring it is well mixed with the vegetables.

Step 7

Pour in the chicken broth, and add paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

Step 8

Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the cauliflower rice to absorb the flavors.

Step 9

Return the sausage to the skillet and mix everything together. Cook for another 5 minutes until everything is heated through.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
