Break the cauliflower into florets and transfer them into a food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower resembles rice grains. Set aside.
Clean the button mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them thinly.
Peel and finely chop the garlic and onion.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until they are browned and any moisture has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the cauliflower rice, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper, and cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley.
Serve hot as a side dish or as a low-carb main course.
