Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice grains. Set aside.
Dice the onion and mince the garlic. Peel and dice the carrots, and finely chop the green onions.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautΓ©ing until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the diced carrots and cook for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
Stir in the green peas and cook for another 2 minutes.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the eggs to the empty side. Scramble the eggs until they are fully cooked, then mix them with the vegetables.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet, stirring well to combine with the vegetables and egg.
Pour in the coconut aminos and sesame oil, stirring to coat the cauliflower rice evenly.
Add the cooked chicken breast to the skillet, mix well, and cook everything for another 5 minutes until heated through.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
