Directions
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place riced cauliflower in a medium bowl, drizzle with 1 Tbsp olive oil, season with ½ of the smoked paprika and onion powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Spread cauliflower over a foil lined baking sheet. Roast 10-15 mins, or until lightly browned, stir half-way through.
- Toast walnuts in a dry, saute pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Set aside on a plate to cool.
- Pat chicken strips dry with paper towels, heat 1 and ½ Tbsp olive oil in pan used for walnuts over medium-high heat. Add red onion to pan, cook 2-3 minutes until just soft, add chicken. Add remaining paprika-onion blend, salt, and pepper to taste. Cook 5-6 minutes until chicken is fully cooked. Transfer to plate.
- Heat about 1 Tbsp olive oil in pan used for chicken over medium heat, add kale to hot pan. Cook 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat, add cauliflower to pan with dates, half the walnuts, and half the parmesan cheese. Add 1 Tbsp of balsamic vinegar with olive oil to pan and 1 Tbsp of butter. Stir until butter melts.
- Divide kale and cauliflower mix into two bowls, top with smoky chicken and onion. Drizzle with remaining balsamic oil mix to taste. Garnish with remaining walnuts and parmesan cheese.
