Ingredients
- 12 oz precooked chorizo or andouille sausage
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 small onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 2 small zucchini cut in half lengthwise, then sliced crosswise into pieces
- 12 oz cauliflower rice fresh or frozen
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Slice the sausage into coins and heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and once heated, add the sausage in a single layer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides, then use a slotted spoon to remove to a plate.
- Lower the heat to medium and add another tablespoon of oil. Add the onion, garlic and bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes until soft. Add the zucchini and cook another minute and season all over with sea salt and black pepper.
- Add in the cauliflower rice and cook 1-3 minutes or until cooked to preference. Do not overcook to avoid mushy “rice”.
- Season with salt, pepper and paprika, then add the sausage back in and stir. Remove from heat, garnish with cilantro and serve!
