Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, rice vinegar, erythritol sweetener, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to create the teriyaki sauce. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
Pour the prepared teriyaki sauce over the chicken in the skillet. Lower the heat to medium and let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through.
While the chicken is cooking, pulse the cauliflower florets in a food processor until they resemble rice.
In another large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is tender but not mushy. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets and sliced red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
To assemble the bowls, place a portion of cauliflower rice at the bottom of each bowl. Top with the cooked chicken teriyaki and sautéed vegetables.
Garnish each bowl with sliced scallions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
Enjoy your Keto Chicken Teriyaki Bowl!
