Dominican Shrimp Cauliflower Asopao: A Lighter Taste of Home

Rainy days growing up meant one thing—asopao was on the stove. It was comfort, culture, and care in a bowl. This version keeps all the flavor and soul, but swaps the rice for cauliflower for a lighter, low-carb twist.

It’s a nod to our roots with wellness in mind—rich with shrimp, spices, and love. Whether you're craving tradition or just good food that feels like home, this dish brings both.

There’s nothing like a well-seasoned, juicy chicken—and this Sofrito Chicken recipe might just be my favorite way to bring bold, Dominican flavor straight to your kitchen. I used my Sofrito Para Sofreír to create a rich paste for an overnight marinade that soaks into every bite. Before seasoning, I rubbed the chicken down with an infused oil made by mixing two tablespoons of the sofrito blend into my favorite avocado oil—adding moisture and depth at every layer. After marinating, the chicken bakes low and slow in butter at 375-400°F for about 1 to 1.5 hours until golden, tender, and mouthwatering. It’s soulful, simple, and unforgettable. Let’s get cooking!
