Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large head cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion
- 1 medium carrot
- 1 medium bell pepper
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 4 large egg
- 0.25 cup almond milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons green onions
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Remove the leaves and core from the cauliflower and cut it into large florets. Using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower florets until they reach a rice-like texture. Set aside.
Dice the onion, carrot, and bell pepper into small pieces and set them aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the diced onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until translucent.
Add the diced carrot and bell pepper to the skillet and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the cauliflower rice, followed by the cooked chicken breast. Pour the coconut aminos over the mixture and cook for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend well. Once done, remove from heat and keep warm.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
In another clean, non-stick skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Pour in half of the egg mixture to make the first omelette.
Cook the omelette for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to set and the bottom is lightly golden. Carefully flip the omelette and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
Remove the omelette from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture to create a second omelette.
Place each omelette on a plate and spoon half of the cauliflower chicken rice mixture on one side of the omelette. Fold the other side over to form a half-moon shape, covering the rice.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately. Enjoy your Paleo Omelette Rice!
