Ingredients

  • 1 medium head cauliflower (about 24 ounces), rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 scallions, diced
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 1/2 limes
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Method

  1. Remove the cauliflower core and let the florets dry completely.
  2. Working in two batches, pulse the florets in a food processor just until they resemble rice or couscous; avoid processing them into a paste.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Cook the scallions and garlic for 3–4 minutes, until soft.
  4. Raise the heat to medium-high, add the cauliflower, cover, and cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring often, until tender inside and slightly crisp outside. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Remove from the heat and toss with the cilantro and lime juice to taste.
