Begin by slicing the chicken breast into thin, bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the coconut aminos and sesame oil to create the sauce. Set aside for later use.
Peel and grate the fresh ginger, and finely chop the garlic cloves.
Peel and julienne the carrot into thin strips.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the cauliflower rice noodles. Cook according to the package instructions or until tender, usually about 4-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced chicken to the skillet and stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of sesame oil. Sauté the ginger and garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the carrots and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and crack the eggs into the empty space. Scramble the eggs until cooked and then mix them with the vegetables.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and pour the coconut aminos mixture over the top. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Add the drained cauliflower rice noodles to the skillet. Toss everything together until well coated with the sauce.
Slice the green onions and sprinkle them over the dish.
Cut the lime into wedges and serve the dish with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top before eating.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Pad See Ew!
