Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
  • 1 fresh jalapeño chopped and seeds removed
  • 1 10 ounce bag frozen Cauliflower Rice
  • Zest from 1 lime about 1 1/2 teaspoons
  • Juice from 1 lime about 1 tablespoon
  • 1/4 -1/2 cup cilantro finely chopped (add to your preference)
  • salt and pepper to taste this NEEDS salt and pepper, do a taste test and add to your liking

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan, saute the minced garlic, red onion and jalapeño 1-2 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the frozen cauliflower rice (tap the bag on the counter top a few times before opening to help break up any clumps)
  • Sauté the cauliflower rice 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. The rice will produce a lot of steam as it cooks, it is almost done when the steam has dissipated.
  • Turn the heat up slightly (this helps to remove any additional moisture) stir in the zest, lime juice, cilantro and add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add any additional lime zest, juice or cilantro to your liking.
