Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 1 medium head cauliflower, riced
- 0.25 cup coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, freshly grated
- 4 stalks green onions, sliced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 medium lime, cut into wedges
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the cauliflower 'rice'. Trim the leaves and stem from the cauliflower and break it into florets.
Step 2
Transfer the cauliflower florets into a food processor and pulse until the florets are broken down into rice-sized pieces. Be careful not to over-process.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add riced cauliflower and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes until it begins to soften. Season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of avocado oil and increase the heat to medium-high. Add the thinly sliced beef strips in a single layer and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until browned. You may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Step 5
Once all the beef is seared, return it all to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stir-frying for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 6
Pour in the coconut aminos and stir to coat the beef evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 7
Add the sliced red bell pepper and julienned carrot to the skillet. Continue cooking for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Step 8
Slice the green onions and add most of them to the skillet, reserving a small amount for garnish.
Step 9
To serve, spoon the seasoned cauliflower rice onto plates. Top with savory beef and vegetable mixture.
Step 10
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro, remaining green onions, and lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the dish. Serve immediately.
