Gambas al Ajillo with Cauliflower Rice
"A flavorful and low-carb Spanish classic, featuring succulent shrimp sautéed in garlic-infused olive oil, served alongside fluffy cauliflower rice."
Preparation Steps
Prepare the cauliflower rice: Pulse cauliflower florets in a food processor until they resemble rice grains. Alternatively, use a box grater.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter or olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until tender but not mushy. Set aside.
In a separate skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the shrimp to the skillet with the garlic and oil. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and lemon juice.
Serve the gambas al ajillo immediately over the prepared cauliflower rice.
