    Stir in frozen cauliflower. Cover and cook over medium heat 7 minutes, stirring frequently.
  3. Step 3

Tips & Tricks

  • We liked using multicolored cherry tomatoes in this recipe for an extra pop of color.
  • Resist the urge to move the chicken after adding to the oil. To get a good sear, you have to leave it alone for awhile.
