In a spacious skillet, warm the oil over a medium-high flame. Once it’s hot, toss in the onions, tomatoes, and jalapeño. Sauté these ingredients until they soften slightly, which should take approximately 2-3 minutes. Next, incorporate the garlic and cauliflower, continuing to sauté until the cauliflower is tender, about 2 minutes.
