INSTRUCTIONS
TO MAKE CAULIFLOWER RICE:
Once you’ve broken cauliflower head into florets and rinsed and patted them dry, add florets to a food processor. Pulse a few times until cauliflower is broken down/minced into a “rice-like” consistency. Set aside.
SAUTEE THE SHRIMP:
In a medium 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 Tbsps of butter until melted. Add in the minced garlic to sauté frequently about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Next, add in the shrimp (seasoned w/ cajun seasoning + parsley) and cook on both sides (about 3-4 minutes), until pink and cook through. Remove shrimp from the skillet unto a plate and set aside.
ASSEMBLY:
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
In the same skillet (with juices from shrimp + all), add riced cauliflower and mix everything together. Next, add seasonings, lemon juice, and hot sauce and stir again. Cook for 2-3 minutes until cauliflower rice has fully soaked in everything is becomes tender. Add in the kale, tomatoes, and shrimp ensuring that they are spread out evenly.
Drizzle everything lightly with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and place skillet directly in oven to bake for 8-10 minutes, until the kale has wilted and the tomatoes have become slightly tender.
Remove from oven and serve immediately. Garnish with dried parsley and extra hot sauce, if desired.
Bon Appetit!
