Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
Cut the cauliflower into florets, removing the core and leaves.
Place the cauliflower florets in a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower is reduced to rice-sized grains. Be careful not to over-process, as you want the grains to be rough and not too fine.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, but not browned.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the cauliflower rice to the skillet, stirring well to coat the rice with the oil and garlic.
Cook the cauliflower rice for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until it becomes tender and slightly golden.
Stir in the chopped parsley, cilantro, and dill, mixing well to distribute the herbs evenly throughout the rice.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and lemon zest, stirring to combine all the flavors.
Remove from heat and transfer the herbed cauliflower rice to a serving bowl.
Serve warm as a side dish to complement your Whole30 meal, or enjoy on its own.
