Keto Spicy Chicken Cauliflower Fried Rice Recipe Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower, diced
- 2 teaspoons avocado oil
- 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
- 1 small white onion, diced,
- 3 eggs, whipped
- 1 teaspoon ginger paste or fresh ginger, minced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce or coconut aminos

Keto Spicy Chicken Cauliflower Fried Rice Recipe Instructions
- Precook the chicken in an instant pot pressure cooker, on the grill, or over the stovetop. Cut the chicken breasts into cubes. Set aside.
- Cut all the vegetables before you start. Dice the onion. Then cut the cauliflower into small pieces. Add the cut-up cauliflower chunks to a food processor and pulse it long enough for it to be broken down into rice size pieces.
- Over medium heat, add the avocado oil and add the riced cauliflower. Cook it over medium heat for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the rice is soft.
- Just before the rice is done, add salt, pepper, garlic, and ginger. Then add the onion and cook it for another 3 to 4 minutes until the onions are translucent.
- Now add the pre-cooked chicken.
- Move the rice over so that you have enough room to add the eggs to scramble them in the same pan or leave space on the grill. Add a small amount of oil if needed. Cook until scrambled.
- Add the soy sauce or coconut aminos, sesame oil, and lime juice.
- Mix until fully combined and serve warm.
