Mexican (Spanish) “Rice”

Cooking Steps

I cooked this in my non-stick wok but a large saute pan will work just fine. Heat your pan over medium-high heat, add olive oil, onion, and minced garlic. Saute for 5 minutes.

Add riced cauliflower, cumin, chili powder and garlic salt – Let cook 5-8 minutes – Stir every minute or so.

Add chicken stock and tomatoes. Use a rubber spatula to break up the tomatoes. Reduce heat to low, cover, and allow to simmer 30-40 minutes or until all the liquid has reduced.

SERVE AND ENJOY!!
