QUICK & EASY CAULIFLOWER FRIED RICE WITH CHICKEN
INGREDIENTS
- 1 small head of cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil (see notes)
- 1 small white onion, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups frozen peas and carrots
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups shredded or diced cooked chicken (see notes)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce, plus extra for serving (or use tamari or coconut aminos)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare cauliflower rice. Rinse and pay cauliflower dry and cut into large chunks. Add to a food processor, working in 2-3 batches. Pulse until the cauliflower is broken down and resembles rice pieces, about 10-15 pulses. (If you have a chunk that’s left, you can just remove it and add it to the next batch.) Transfer the cauliflower rice to a bowl and continue with the remaining batches.
- Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until softened. Add peas and carrots (it’s fine to add them frozen) and garlic. Stir until tender, an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Crack the eggs into the pan and stir until scrambled and mixed with the vegetables.
- Add chicken, cauliflower rice and soy sauce to the pan. Stir until everything is well combined and heated through, about 2-3 more minutes.
- Serve with extra soy sauce if desired.
