Instructions:

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken breast and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the diced onions and minced garlic until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the carrots and bell peppers to the skillet. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
  4. Stir in the cauliflower rice, soy sauce, and oyster sauce. Combine well and cook until the cauliflower is tender, about 5 minutes.
  5. Push the cauliflower rice mixture to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty side and scramble until cooked through.
  6. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and mix everything together. Add the chopped green onions and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to ensure everything is heated through.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot and enjoy!

Helpful Tips:

  • If you’re short on time, pre-riced cauliflower is available in most grocery stores and can save you a step.
  • Add some extra veggies such as peas or broccoli for more color and nutrition.
  • For a different protein option, try using shrimp or tofu instead of chicken.

Storage Instructions:

Store any leftover Chicken Cauliflower Fried Rice in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through.
