Ingredients

  • 1 Mild Italian sausage sliced Hot Italian is good too
  • 2 chopped, cubed chicken breasts
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 crushed garlic clove
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup coconut milk Use good coconut milk like Thai Kitchen
  • 1 1/2 cup chopped spinach
  • 1/3 cup chopped sundried tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup chopped broccoli
  • 1/2 cup sliced cherry tomatoes
  • 1 1/2 tbsp dried basil Fresh is better - the same amount chopped fine
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese Use real grated parmesan

Instructions

  1. Heat frying pan on medium high. Add sliced sausage first as this will add a bit of oil to the pan. Then add chicken and onions. Saute till no longer pink and onions are soft. Add garlic and cook for another minute. Add broccoli and cook for a few more minutes, until broccoli is tender crisp.

  2. Now add chicken broth and coconut milk. Let that heat up, it will take only and few minutes. Add spinach, both tomatoes and basil. Cook for about another 4 minutes or so. When all is cooked, add the parmesan cheese and stir in to melt. Cover and turn off heat. Once the cauliflower is finished, scoop Tuscan Style Chicken Saute onto a bed of cauliflower rice to serve.

  3. Cauliflower Rice. Simply grate desired amount of cauliflower. Add a little olive oil to heated frying pan. Add cauliflower to pan and heat through, turning it every minute or so. It looks good when it has browned somewhat - more like real rice. Add a little seasoning like salt and pepper. Cover with lid for a softer texture. Delicious with Chicken Saute!
