Ingredients

Directions

  1. Step 1

    Cut cauliflower into small florets spray with cooking spray. Place in a lightly sprayed grilling basket. Toss with 1/2 tsp (2 mL) of the chili powder.

  2. Step 2

    Slice chicken breasts, lengthwise in half to get thin cutlets. Toss with oil, garlic, thyme and remaining chili powder.

  3. Step 3

    Place grilling basket on grill over medium-high heat and add chicken on oiled grill alongside. Close lid and grill for about 5 minutes. Stir cauliflower and turn chicken over; cook about 5 minutes until cauliflower is tender crisp and chicken is no longer pink inside.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from heat and toss cauliflower into a bowl with cheese and parsley. Serve with chicken.
