Put the chicken, sweet potato, onion, broccoli, tomatoes with liquid, water, coconut milk and tomato paste in a slow cooker.

When the chicken is almost done cooking, working in batches, in a food processor or blender, gently pulse the cauliflower just until it becomes the texture of rice.

Put the cauliflower rice into serving bowls. Top with the parsley.
