4 servings
- 1 medium head cauliflower (about 2 lbs), cut into florets
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- ½ medium white onion, finely diced
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and finely diced
Ingredient noteA serving of up to about one small jalapeño is low in fructose. This recipe contains only about 1/4 of a jalapeno per serving, making it likely Low Fructose. If you prefer to always avoid jalapeño, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp chili powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
Ingredient noteTomatoes carry a little excess fructose that a low fructose diet watches in larger servings; the small amount used here keeps the fructose load low, so it is likely Low Fructose. If you prefer to always avoid diced tomatoes, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ cup chicken broth
- ¾ tsp kosher salt, plus more to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (optional)
- 1 lime, cut into wedges (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Working in two batches, pulse the cauliflower florets in a food processor until broken down into rice-sized pieces, about 8–10 short pulses per batch. Spread on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and press firmly to remove as much moisture as possible.
- 2
Heat the avocado oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onion and jalapeño and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and the onion is translucent, about 4–5 minutes.
