Ingredients
- 6 cloves garlic
- 12 oz fresh whole portabella mushrooms
- ¼ cup brown sugar substitute
- 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce (or liquid aminos)
- 5 tablespoons rice vinegar, divided
- ¼ cup pineapple juice
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 small shallot
- 1 small serrano pepper
- 1 large plum tomato
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions
- 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
- 8 oz riced fresh cauliflower
- ¼ teaspoon lite sodium salt
Steps
- Chop garlic finely (3 teaspoons). Remove stems and gills (dark brown layers) from mushrooms and discard, then slice mushrooms thinly. Combine sugar substitute, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic, 2 tablespoons vinegar, pineapple juice, pepper, and turmeric in large bowl; whisk until sugar substitute has dissolved. Add mushrooms to bowl; stir to combine, then let stand 10 minutes to marinate.
- Meanwhile, chop shallot finely (1 tablespoon) and slice serrano pepper thinly (about 1 teaspoon; remove membranes and seeds, if desired). Chop tomato and mint coarsely. Combine remaining 3 tablespoons vinegar with shallots and peppers; set aside.
- Preheat medium, nonstick sauté pan on medium 2–3 minutes. Place mushrooms and marinating liquid in pan; cook 12–14 minutes, stirring occasionally, until liquid has reduced and mixture glazes mushrooms.
- Preheat large sauté pan on medium 2–3 minutes; add oil and remaining 2 teaspoons garlic and cook 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until garlic is golden. Increase heat to medium-high; add cauliflower and salt. Cook 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cauliflower is tender and lightly browned.
- Assemble each bowl by placing cauliflower in center. Arrange tomatoes, mushrooms, mint, and green onions in piles around cauliflower. Drizzle with shallot-pepper mixture (or serve on side); serve immediately.
