Recipe Steps

steps 9

34 min

  • Step 1

    Prepare the cauliflower rice by combing the first amount of olive oil, the cauliflower, first amount of salt, and parsley in a large pan over high heat.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Cook and toss the rice until it reaches a golden brown crisp. You can undercook the rice if you’d prefer it to be more tender. Once done, transfer the rice to a serving dish and set it aside.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Prepare 4 chicken thighs (skin and bones intact) by sprinkling the second amount of salt, the pepper, and the onion powder over the skins.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Heat the second amount of olive oil in the same large pan you used earlier over a medium heat. Place the chicken thighs in the olive oil seasoned side down. Place a lid on the pan and cook for about 7 minutes - the skins should be getting golden brown.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Flip the chicken thighs over and return the lid to the pan. Cook for an additional 7 minutes. Then, transfer the chicken thighs to a clean surface to rest.
    Step 5
  • Step 6

    Melt the butter in the pan to deglaze it, combining it with any leftover olive oil, over a low heat. Toss the garlic in the butter and cook for about 30 seconds.
    Step 6
  • Step 7

    Stir the cream into the pan. Follow this by stirring in chopped tomatoes and the remaining seasonings.
    Step 7
  • Step 8

    Nestle the chicken thighs back into the pan with the sauce. Return the lid once more and cook on a low simmer for 5 minutes.
    Step 8
  • Step 9

    Serve the chicken thighs and the sauce over your cauliflower rice. This recipe here has been garnished with extra chopped parsley.
    Step 9

            Delicious! I substituted full fat coconut milk for the heavy cream, to make this dairy free. I also used deboned bare chicken thighs, and it cooked beautifully.

                    Delicious I made slowed cooked chicken breasts ahead of time to go with it instead of thighs. This is such a quick easy tasty meal to make. I’d double the HWC or maybe tomato sauce to add more sauce to the recipe.

                          This was incredible. I made with boneless skinless chicken thighs (because that's what we had) and it was still delicious! Will absolutely make again!

                            Made this last night, so glad I doubled the recipe! (I didn't double oil though). It was amazing! Can't wait to have it tomorrow again (day 3!!) Thanks
