Ingredients
- 500 grams ground chicken
- 1 cup fresh Thai basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 whole red chili peppers, sliced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari (gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon erythritol sweetener
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 whole lime, cut into wedges
- 4 cups cauliflower rice
Directions
Step 1
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add the minced garlic and sliced red chili peppers to the pan, stirring frequently, and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 3
Increase the heat to high and add the ground chicken, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes until fully browned and cooked through.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, erythritol sweetener, and water. Pour this sauce over the chicken in the pan and stir well to combine.
Step 5
Add the fresh Thai basil leaves to the pan. Stir until the leaves wilt down, which should take about 1-2 minutes.
Step 6
In a separate pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until tender.
Step 7
Serve the chicken stir-fry hot over the cauliflower rice with lime wedges on the side for squeezing.
Step 8
Garnish with additional fresh basil leaves or sliced chilies if desired.
