Cauliflower with chicken and rice is a tasty, healthy, and satisfying dish. These are lazy cabbage rolls, in which white cabbage is replaced with cauliflower, and minced meat is replaced with boiled chicken fillet. The idea for this recipe came to me when I was breastfeeding and I could not eat ordinary cabbage, but I wanted cabbage rolls. Also, I cooked soup and I had boiled chicken. Such original lazy cabbage rolls turned out to be very fragrant, juicy, and amazingly tasty, so I decided to share this recipe with you. And also, importantly, cauliflower with a chicken fillet is prepared as simply and quickly as possible.
Wash the chicken fillet. Pour water into a saucepan, bring it to a boil, and put the chicken in boiling water. Boil the chicken for 20 minutes. Allow the chicken to cool down without removing it from the broth to make it juicier.
Peel the onion and cut it into cubes. Heat some unscented vegetable oil in a skillet and fry the onion until deliciously golden brown. This will take about 10-15 minutes.
While the onions are fried, prepare the cauliflower. Wash it and disassemble it into inflorescences. If you are using frozen cabbage, then you do not need to defrost it first. Place the cauliflower over the onion and sauté for 5 minutes.
