INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Cauliflower (for crust)
1 cup Cauliflower (for sauce)
1/2 cup diced Carrots
1/2 cup diced Celery
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1/4 cup Skim Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
For the crust, pulse 1 cup of cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles rice. Place the riced cauliflower in a bowl, season lightly with salt and pepper, and press it into the bottom and up the sides of a small oven-safe dish to form a thin crust.
Lightly drizzle olive oil over the crust and pre-bake it for about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with salt and pepper and cook it in a skillet until lightly browned and just cooked through. Once cooled, chop or shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet, add the diced onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté in a small amount of olive oil until the vegetables are softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add 1 cup of cauliflower (for the sauce) to the vegetables and cook for another 2 minutes before stirring in the chicken broth and skim milk.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it thicken slightly. Stir in the cooked chicken, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Spoon the creamy chicken and vegetable mixture into the pre-baked cauliflower crust. Optionally, sprinkle a few extra pepper or herbs on top.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the filling is bubbly and the crust is slightly golden.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
