Cauliflower Waffle with Chicken and Jalapeno Sauce

Cauliflower Waffle with Chicken and Jalapeño Sauce

A healthy spin on chicken and waffles!

Directions:

  1. In a medium pot, combine chicken and 1 cup cilantro. Fill pot with enough water to just cover chicken. Boil for 15 minutes or until chicken is tender. Shred chicken and reserve.
  2. Meanwhile, in a blender, combine remaining 1/4 cup cilantro, jalapenos, red onion, garlic, lime zest, lime juice and parsley to make jalapeño sauce.  Blend until smooth.  Reserve in small bowl.
  3. In a food processor, pulse cauliflower until it resembles rice.  In a medium bowl, combine cauliflower "rice" with scallions, egg, cumin, onion powder, paprika, oats and cheese. Mix until combined.
  4. Turn waffle maker on high.  Spray with cooking spray. Working in 1/2 cup batches, scoop batter into waffle maker and cook for 10 minutes, or until waffle is cooked through. It should pull up easily from waffle maker.
  5. Top 1 waffle with 1/4 cup cooked chicken and drizzle 1/4 cup sauce on top of chicken. Repeat with remaining waffles. Season to taste with salt.
