Instructions

0 of 5 done
  1. Step 1

    Add olive oil to a medium pot over medium-high heat. Once heated, add diced onion and cook for 5 minutes, until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.

  2. Step 2

    Reduce heat to medium and add the riced cauliflower. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it's released and cooked off most of its moisture.

  3. Step 3

    Add the diced tomatoes, fajita spice, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir and cook for 7 to 10 minutes, until the liquid has mostly evaporated and soaked into the rice.

  4. Step 4

    Create a well in the center of the pot and add the tomato paste. Let it cook directly in the well for about 1 minute before stirring it through. Cook for 5 more minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Stir in the lime juice and cilantro, as desired. Serve.
