Ingredients
1 medium head
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves
2 scallions
kosher salt and pepper
1-1/2 limes
1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro
Directions
Remove the core and let the cauliflower dry completely. Coarsely chop into florets, then place half of the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower is small and has the texture of rice or couscous – don't over process or it will get mushy. Set aside and repeat with the remaining cauliflower. Heat a large saute pan over medium heat, add olive oil, scallions and garlic and sauté about 3 to 4 minutes, or until soft. Raise the heat to medium-high. Add the cauliflower "rice" to the saute pan. Cover and cook approximately 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cauliflower is slightly crispy on the outside but tender on the inside. with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and place in a medium bowl; toss with fresh cilantro and lime juice to taste.
