Description
Chicken thighs sautéed with garlic, herbs and spices and served with cauliflower rice.
Ingredients
1 lb boneless & skinless free-range chicken thighs
1 tsp. Primal Palate’s Amore seasoning* (or your favorite Italian seasoning)
2 garlic cloves (finely minced)
1/4 tsp. turmeric
1/4 tsp. smoked paprika
2 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/4 tsp. crack black pepper
2 tbsp. ghee
1 onion (sliced)
1 red jalapeño (diced)
1/4 cup organic chicken broth
FOR CAULIFLOWER RICE:
1 tbsp. Avocado oil
2 12- ounce packages of frozen riced cauliflower
2 scallions (finely chopped)
salt and pepper
Instructions
To begin, pat chicken thighs dry and cut them into cubes. Transfer the chicken to a mixing bowl and add the Amore/Italian seasoning, garlic, turmeric, paprika, parsley, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss the chicken to make sure it’s well coated.
Now, heat 2 tablespoons of ghee in a deep skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and lower the heat to medium-high. Sear the chicken while continuously stirring for about 5-7 minutes or until the chicken starts to develop some color. Now, add the onions and jalapeño pepper, stir and sauté until the onions are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Then add the chicken broth to deglaze the pan. Lower the heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Then taste and season with more salt if necessary.
In a separate non-stick skillet, heat the avocado oil over high heat and add the riced cauliflower. Sauté the cauliflower, continuously stirring, for 5-7 minutes until the cauliflower is tender. Then, stir in scallions and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve Chicken family style with the cauliflower rice.
