Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 1 medium Lime
Instructions
Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them in a food processor. Pulse until it resembles the texture of rice. Depending on the size of your food processor, you may need to do this in batches.
Mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the riced cauliflower to the skillet and stir to combine with the garlic.
Sprinkle the ground coriander, salt, and black pepper over the cauliflower rice. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Cook the cauliflower rice for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it becomes tender but not mushy.
While the cauliflower is cooking, finely chop the fresh cilantro. Juice the lime and set the juice aside.
Once the cauliflower rice is done, remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the chopped cilantro and lime juice.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary with more salt or lime juice.
Serve warm as a side dish, and enjoy the fresh, zesty flavor of your Whole30 Coriander Cauliflower Rice!
