INGREDIENTS
1 head Cauliflower (600g)
2 ounces Sharp Cheddar Cheese (56g)
1 cup Skim Milk (245g)
2 ounces Chicken Breast (57g)
1 teaspoon Unsalted Butter
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F if you prefer a baked finish.
Cut the cauliflower into florets and steam until very tender, about 10-12 minutes.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper. Sauté or bake the chicken until fully cooked, then shred or dice into small pieces.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a blender. Add the skim milk, garlic powder, and unsalted butter. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Pour the cauliflower sauce into a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir in the sharp cheddar cheese gradually until melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Fold in the cooked chicken pieces until they are well distributed.
For a baked topping, transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish, sprinkle a little extra cheddar on top, and bake for 5-7 minutes until bubbly.
Serve warm and enjoy this protein-packed, creamy twist on traditional mac.
