Sautéed Cauliflower

I love cauliflower so I always look at recipes for it. I like it cold and hot, raw and cooked, even mashed instead of potatoes.

5-Minute Healthy Sautéed Cauliflower

Enjoy the extra flavor and health benefits from combining cauliflower with turmeric for this easy-to-prepare, great-tasting side dish that will complement almost any meal. Turmeric has long been recognized as a powerful anti-inflammatory in both Chinese and Indian systems of medicine, and modern scientific research continues to reinforce the benefits of this tasty spice. One serving of this dish also provides 181% of the daily value (DV) for vitamin C, 46% DV for vitamin K, and 33% DV for folate. Enjoy!

5-Minute Healthy Sautéed Cauliflower Prep and Cook Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:
  • 1 lb cauliflower
  • 5 TBS low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • Mediterranean Dressing
  • 3 TBS extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 medium cloves garlic, pressed or chopped
  • sea salt and pepper to taste

  • Optional:
  • 1 TBS chopped cashews
  • 2 TBS Parmesan or Romano cheese
  • 2 TBS chopped cilantro
  • 1 TBS mango chutney
  • 1 TBS chopped cilantro

Directions:

  1. Cut cauliflower florets into quarters and let sit for 5 minutes to bring out their hidden health benefits.
  2. Press or chop garlic and let sit for 5 minutes.
  3. Heat 5 TBS broth in a stainless steel skillet on medium heat.
  4. When broth begins to steam, add cauliflower and turmeric and cover. For al dente cauliflower, cook for no more than 5 minutes.
  5. Transfer to a bowl. For more flavor, toss cauliflower with the remaining ingredients while it is still hot. (Mediterranean Dressing does not need to be made separately.)
