Ingredients

• 4 cups cauliflower rice
• 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 3 large eggs
• 2 medium chicken breasts (cooked and diced)
• 1 small onion (finely diced)
• 1 medium carrot (diced)
• 1 cup green beans (chopped into bite-sized pieces)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
• 2 stalks green onions (sliced)
• 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Prepare all your ingredients before starting. Dice your vegetables, mince the garlic, grate the ginger, cut the cooked chicken into small pieces, and whisk the eggs in a small bowl.

Step 2

In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Add the diced carrot and chopped green beans to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables start to become tender.

Step 4

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour the whisked eggs onto the other side. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then mix them back into the vegetables.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Increase the heat to high and add the cauliflower rice to the skillet. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cauliflower rice is tender but not mushy.

Step 7

Lower the heat to medium and stir in the diced cooked chicken, coconut aminos, sesame oil, sea salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is well mixed and heated through.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding an extra splash of coconut aminos for sweetness or a pinch of salt for seasoning.

Step 9

Garnish the fried rice with sliced green onions before serving. Enjoy your Whole30 fried rice immediately!
