1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 cup finely diced cucumber

2–3 tablespoon fresh dill, parsley or mint, or a combination

pepper or chili flakes to taste

Cauliflower Rice

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 large shallot ( or ½ cup finely diced onion )

2 cloves garlic, minced (or use 1 tsp granulated garlic)

3 cups cauliflower rice (cauliflower florets pulsed in a food processor until ...
... like grains of rice)

salt, pepper, cayenne to taste

optional- lemon zest, fresh herbs

Optional Bowl Additions:

1–2 cups diced cucumber

1–2 cups tomatoes- sliced in half or diced

1 avocado, sliced

fresh greens- arugula or fresh herbs

Grilled Veggies- red bell pepper, eggplant slices, zucchini or summer squash ( brush with olive oil and salt before grilling)

Toasty Pita

Instructions:

Place marinade ingredients in a medium bowl and stir.

Add Chicken or Portobello (leave whole), toss to coat. Set aside at room temp.

Make Cucumber Yogurt sauce by stirring all ingredients together in a small bowl.

Preheat grill to high heat. ( you can also sear or bake- see notes)

Prep any veggies for the bowl (cut cucumber, tomatoes, and avocado) and set aside.

Start the Cauliflower Rice:

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat.

Add shallot or onion and sauté for two minutes. Turn heat to medium, add garlic, and cook one more minute. Add cauliflower rice. Sauté for a couple of minutes, stirring, and then turn the heat down to med-low.

At this point, put the chicken, portobello, and any veggies you like (brushed with olive oil& salted) on the grill, cover, and turn the heat down to medium, and cook for 5 minutes or so.

Return to the cauliflower rice, stir for a few more minutes, adding seasonings. Be careful to not overcook this, you want to retain its great texture.

Check the grill and flip chicken when you see good grill marks, adjusting heat as necessary. I like to give a good sear first, then turn the heat down to med-low to finish cooking.

When cooked, slice chicken or Portobello and any other veggies you had grilling.

Assemble Bowls:

Place a mound of Cauliflower rice in the base of the bowl. Surround with veggies, chicken, and a dollop of cucumber yogurt sauce. Sprinkle the veggies with fresh herbs, a little salt, olive oil, and lemon if you like.
