Instructions

Wash the cauliflower, remove the core and let the cauliflower dry completely.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the oil.
Preheat oven to 425F.
Coarsely chop into florets, then place 1/4th of the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower has the texture of rice, don't over process or it will get mushy. Set aside and repeat with the remaining cauliflower, in batches.
Saute onions and cook about 4 to 5 minutes, or until soft.
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and spread on a parchment lined sheet pan in a single layer and roast in the oven 25 minutes, mixing halfway until golden. Note this shrinks more in the oven and makes 2 2/3 cups 2/3 cups per serving.
Add the cauliflower "rice" and garlic to the skillet. Mix, cover and cook approximately 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cauliflower is slightly crispy on the outside but tender on the inside.
