Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter
1 cup diced yellow onion

16 ounces cauliflower rice, frozen or thawed (see note)
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

In a large skilllet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook about 2-3 minutes until soft.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add it to the skillet. Sprinkle with the Italian seasonings. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Add the cauliflower rice, chicken broth, and cream. Simmer for 10 minutes or until liquid reduces. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and serve.

Notes

When using frozen cauliflower rice you will have a lot more liquid in the pan and will need to simmer longer than if using fresh cauliflower rice. We like Costco’s organic frozen cauliflower rice and Trader Joe’s fresh cauliflower rice. Some brands of frozen cauliflower rice are not great and turn to mush because they are so fine in texture.
