I can not believe that I spent a good majority of 27 years of my life not eating cauliflower, I can not believe how much I deprived myself of such a delicious treat. Now I am just intrigued to try it with every different flavor combination I can dream of. So here you go, a great summer time grilled chicken with a versatile, delicious marinade and an easy way to saute up some amazing Cauliflower.
For the Chicken Marinade:
- 2-4 Boneless Chicken Breasts
- 1/2 Cup EVOO
- 1/4 Cup Lemon Juice
- 1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
- 4 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 Tbsp organic honey
- 2 Tsps dried thyme
- 1 Tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 Tsp Cayenne Pepper
- 1 Tsp Salt
- 1 Tsp Pepper
Process:
- Place all of the above ingredients except the chicken in a bowl and mix well
- Add the chicken to the bowl and ensure an even coating of all the meat, cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours but up to 2 days. Mine has been in the fridge for 2 days now and can’t wait to try it later, yum yum.
- Once marinated, grill over medium heat only flipping once until cooked through.
- Serve over a bed of the Mango CousCous below and enjoy
Mango Cauliflower CousCous
Ingredients:
- 1/2 Head of Cauliflower
- 1/2 Cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/2 Cup Chopped almonds, consistency of your choice (you can substitute any nuts that you want)
- 1 Whole mango peeled and diced
- 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil
- Pinch of sea salt
Process:
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat
- Add the coconut oil until it melts
- Pulse all of your cauliflower in your food processor until it is like a rice size or small, this is all personal preference. I just let it keep going until it resembles CousCous
- Transfer the Cauliflower to a seperate bowl, now use your processor to chop your almonds up. You don’t have to use a food processor you can Slap Chop if you have one too, add the almonds to the cauliflower
- Now place your diced mango in the food processor and pulse until it is broken down to small chunks, don’t pulse too much or you will end up with mango salsa which I am sure would work just fine as well, I just prefer little bites
- Add the cauliflower, almonds, and coconut to your saute pan and turn the heat up to medium high
- Cook for about 5 minutes stirring often and then add your Mango
- Continue to cook until done to your liking, I keep cooking mine until it turns slightly brown and it is always perfect
- Serve with your delicious Grilled Chicken and Enjoy
