Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the riced cauliflower to the skillet, stirring to coat it in the coconut oil and garlic.
Sprinkle the ground coriander, salt, and black pepper over the cauliflower rice. Stir to combine the spices evenly.
Cook the cauliflower rice for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender but not mushy.
Roughly chop the cilantro leaves.
