Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces chicken breasts
- 1 head cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 2 stalks green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice: cut the cauliflower into small florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice grains. Set aside.
Dice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until golden and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add chopped garlic and grated ginger and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add broccoli florets and diced red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Stir in the soy sauce and return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Mix well to combine the flavors.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and stir gently to combine all ingredients. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cauliflower rice is tender.
Finely chop the green onions and sprinkle them over the dish before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Keto Savory Chicken and Vegetable Rice.
