Recipe Steps

17 min

  • Step 1

    Start by cooking whole links of chorizo sausage in a pan over medium-high heat. No cooking oil is needed here, as the sausage is naturally fatty. Cook until golden brown on all sides. Set the cooked sausage aside to cool before slicing. The original recipe here made about 16-18 slices.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Use the same pan to cook the cauliflower rice over a high heat. Season the rice with all spices (no olive oil yet) and cook until the rice turns slightly crispy and golden brown.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Turn the heat down to a low and toss the sliced sausage into the pan. Coat all ingredients in the olive oil and continually toss until all the ingredients in the pan are heated through and browned slightly more.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Serve hot! Each serving is approx. ½ cup rice with 4-5 slices of chorizo.

      That looks more like smoked sausage rather than chorizo. The chorizo I have used growing up doesn't have that consistency and is usually mixed in with eggs.
