Instructions
- 1
Make the chipotle sauce: Transfer the chipotle peppers with all of their adobo sauce and the fire-roasted tomatoes to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Pour in the blended chipotle-tomato mixture — it will spatter, so stand back — then stir in the cumin, smoked paprika, and salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 8–10 minutes until the sauce has darkened slightly and thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and set aside.

Make the cauliflower rice: Working in batches, pulse the cauliflower florets in a food processor until broken down into rice-sized pieces, about 8–10 pulses. Alternatively, grate the florets on the large holes of a box grater. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the cauliflower rice and salt, spread into an even layer, and cook undisturbed for 2 minutes, then stir and cook for another 3–4 minutes until the cauliflower is tender and any excess moisture has evaporated. Transfer to a bowl and cover loosely to keep warm.
