Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower head and cut it into smaller florets.
In a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they resemble rice grains. Take care not to over-process.
Heat a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the diced chicken breast to the pan. SautΓ© for about 5-7 minutes until fully cooked, then remove from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble until cooked through. Transfer the eggs to the same bowl as the chicken.
Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the pan along with the minced garlic and grated ginger. SautΓ© for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced red bell pepper to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until just tender.
Stir in the cauliflower rice, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently until the cauliflower is tender.
Return the cooked chicken and scrambled eggs to the pan. Combine all ingredients well.
Stir in the sliced green onions and sesame oil. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.
