INGREDIENTS
200 grams Cauliflower
1.5 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Fat-Free Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Break the cauliflower into florets and steam them until tender, about 6-8 minutes.
While the cauliflower steams, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced chicken breast seasoned with a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
In a small saucepan, combine the fat-free milk and sharp cheddar cheese over low heat. Stir continuously until the cheese is melted and a smooth sauce forms. Season with a little extra garlic powder, salt, and pepper if desired.
Mix the steamed cauliflower and cooked chicken in a baking dish. Pour the cheddar sauce over the mixture, ensuring even coverage.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve warm and enjoy your protein-packed twist on cauliflower mac!
