Ingredients
  • 2 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 300 g total)
  • 10 5/8 ozs cauliflower, grated into rice-sized pieces
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 whole lime (zest and juice)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
1

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). Place chicken thighs skin-side up on a baking tray. Rub garlic into and under the skin. Roast 30–35 minutes until internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).

Meanwhile, pulse cauliflower in a coarse grinder or grate by hand to make rice. Briefly steam or warm cauliflower rice in a covered pan using a splash of water until tender (3–4 minutes).

3

Toss cauliflower rice with chopped cilantro, lime zest and a squeeze of lime juice.

4

Serve chicken thighs on a bed of cilantro–lime cauliflower rice.
