It’s Superbowl Sunday and I’ve got the perfect game day food for you. Fully loaded cauliflower nachos with guacamole, pico de gallo, creamy hot sauce and my absolute favorite cilantro lime sauce. It’s the ultimate game day dish and it’s so delicious I can’t wait to dig in.
Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower, cleaned and cut into pieces
3 tablespoons hot sauce
1 rotisserie chicken, skin removed and chicken shredded
Guacamole (recipe below)
Pico de gallo (recipe below)
Cilantro lime sauce for serving (recipe below)
Creamy hot sauce for serving (recipe below)
Directions:
Cut cauliflower into pieces. Clean and dry off. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper then lightly grease paper with cooking oil. Place cut cauliflower on parchment paper and spray with cooking oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast on 400′ for about 25 minutes until edges are slightly crispy. Remove from oven and set aside. Combine shredded rotisserie chicken with hot sauce 1 tablespoon at a time until desired heat level. (you don’t have to use all of it or you can add more if you really like it spicy!) Layer roasted cauliflower, shredded chicken, guacamole and pico de gallo on a serving dish. Top with cilantro lime sauce and creamy hot sauce.
Guacamole:
3 avocados
2 tablespoons lime juice
salt and pepper
Mash avocado then season with lime juice, salt and pepper.
Pico De Gallo:
1 box of cherry tomatoes, diced
1 small red onion, diced
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon lime juice
Combine diced tomatoes, red onion, cilantro and lime juice.
Cilantro Lime Sauce:
1/2 cup of mayo
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Juice of 1/2 lime
1/4 tsp. chile powder
Combine until smooth. Place in small ziplock bag and cut off one edge then drizzle over cauliflower nachos.
Creamy Hot Sauce:
Combine equal parts hot sauce and mayo until smooth. Place in small ziplock bag and cut off one edge then drizzle over cauliflower nachos.
TIPS & TRICKS:
- If you would like a less spicy version of this dish swap hot sauce for bbq sauce.
- You can use cooked boneless skinless chicken breast cut into small pieces in place of rotisserie chicken.
- You can serve this on one large baking dish or in small bowls for individual servings.
- Serve with tortilla chips on the side to scoop up the ingredients.
- Place mixture in a soft tortilla and wrap up as a burrito.
