📝 Preparation Steps
1
Remove any tough, woody parts from the broccoli stalk. If the outer skin of the stalk is very tough, you can peel it with a vegetable peeler. Chop the remaining stalk and the florets into 1-inch pieces.
2
Place into a food processor and pulse until the broccoli is broken up into tiny rice-sized pieces. This should yield about 2 cups of “riced” broccoli. Stop there and use your broccoli rice in any recipe that calls for broccoli rice or cauliflower rice.
3
To make Cilantro-Lime Broccoli Rice, heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and brush with olive oil. Add the riced broccoli, the scallions, garlic, cilantro stems, salt, and several grinds of pepper. Cook and stir for ⏱️ 1 minute, until lightly warmed but still bright green. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cumin, lime zest, and a squeeze of lime juice. Stir in the brown rice, if using. Season to taste and serve.
