Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 ½ lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1 in (2.5 cm) pieces
2 ½ teaspoons Gourmet Garden™ Garlic Stir-In Paste
1 teaspoon Gourmet Garden™ Jalapeño Stir-In Paste
kosher salt
¾ teaspoon McCormick ground turmeric
1 lemon, zested
2 ½ teaspoons olive oil
1 cauliflower, small head
4 teaspoons olive oil
½ medium yellow onion, small diced
½ teaspoon McCormick ground cardamom
1 teaspoon McCormick ground coriander
½ teaspoon McCormick ground cumin
⅛ teaspoon McCormick Ground Cinnamon
kosher salt, to taste
⅓ cup pomegranate seeds, plus more for garnish
¼ cup pistachio, shelled
⅓ cup dried apricot, diced into ¼-inch (6 mm) pieces
2 tablespoons pine nuts
2 scallions, thinly sliced on the bias, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the garlicky chicken: In a large bowl, toss the chicken with the Gourmet Garden™ Garlic Stir-In Paste, Gourmet Garden™ Jalapeño Stir-In Paste, a generous sprinkle of salt, turmeric, and lemon zest until well coated. Let sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prep the cauliflower rice: Cut the cauliflower into quarters. Grate each quarter on the large holes of a box grater over a large bowl, stopping short of the core. The cauliflower should be broken down into small pieces the size of rice grains.
  • Once the chicken has marinated, heat the olive oil in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in an even layer and sear on all sides, until cooked through, 7-8 minutes total. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Make the cauliflower rice: Heat the olive oil in a wide nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, 5-7 minutes. Add the cardamom, coriander, cumin, and cinnamon. Let the spices sizzle for 1 minute, until fragrant. Season with salt.
  • Increase the heat to high and add the cauliflower rice. Stir to combine, then cook, stirring occasionally, for 6-7 minutes, until the cauliflower rice is tender and lightly browned in places. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Stir in the pomegranate seeds, pistachios, dried apricots, pine nuts, and scallions. Taste for seasoning and add more salt if necessary.
  • Serve the chicken over the cauliflower rice and garnish with more pomegranate seeds and scallions.
  • Enjoy!
