Garrett's Peppy Cauliflower Rice

     We had lunch at a friend's house when my son Jeremy came to visit.  And not just any friend; this guy used to be a chef.  And so it's always exciting to be invited especially if Garrett is manning the grill!   On the last post I wrote up Jeremy's BBQ thigh rub recipe.  This cauliflower rice would make a great non-carb complement for that.  

I took this while Garrett was cooking it up.

      When we got there Garrett told me he was smoking up some tri-tip.  I brought along a green salad, and he made two other delicious side salads.  

      When we walked in the door,  Garrett was flipping some cauliflower rice in the air, just like you see when you're at Anthony's or some other place where they let you see the chefs at work. Because  over 90% of the recipes on this blog are from friends and family, church cookbooks and friends and friends, I was taking notes and asking questions!  This was so tasty.

Garrett's Peppy Cauliflower Rice



1.  Wash a small head of cauliflower.  

2.  Chop it up to the texture that you would like for serving.

3.  Put some butter and oil about 2-3 tablespoons into a large stainless pan.

4.  Sprinkle salt, pepper, and garlic salt over the caulflower while it's sautéing.
 

5.  Mince up some fresh herbs:  Garrrett had a container in his kitchen of rosemary, thyme, and oregano.  It looked like he had about 3 to 4 tablespoons on his cutting board.  

6.  Right before the cauliflower rice was done, he sprinkled it with red pepper flakes.  I would add that to your own liking because his had a bite!  Then he quickly added the  fresh herbs, flipped it a few times and then it was ready!
