Miso chicken with cauliflower rice
A really quick chicken dish perfect for midweek meals. The sauce is so delicious that you’ll be licking your plate clean with this one. I serve with cauliflower rice to increase the veg and to keep the carbs down - but you can replace with brown rice or quinoa if you prefer. We buy cauliflower rice frozen which is easy to prepare and serve.
