Ingredients

1 tsp sesame oil
2 Tbsp avocado (or other lightly flavored) oil
2 tsp fresh garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fresh ginger, minced
4 cups finely chopped (riced) cauliflower
2 Tbsp sugar free fish sauce
2 Tbsp avocado (or other lightly flavored) oil
3 cloves fresh garlic, chopped
1 tsp fresh ginger, minced
2 Tbsp fresh chilis, minced
2 cups chopped, raw, chicken breast
2 Tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp granulated sugar substitute (I used this brand)
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
Fried eggs to serve (optional)

Method

1
Heat the sesame and avocado (or other) oil in a large heavy bottomed (cast iron if you have it) saute pan. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for about one minute or until fragrant.
2
Add the cauliflower and fry over high heat for about 3 minutes.
3
Add the fish sauce and stir well, cooking for another 3 minutes. The cauliflower should be softened and browned, with most of the liquid evaporated.
4
Remove from the heat and transfer the cauliflower rice to a serving dish.
5
Heat the avocado (or other) oil in the same pan as you cooked the cauliflower rice.
6
Add the garlic, ginger, and chilis and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant and sizzling.
7
Add the chicken to the pan and stir occasionally – cook for about 5 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
8
Add the fish sauce, sweetener, and fresh basil – stir and cook until the chicken is coated and the basil is wilted – about 2-3 minutes.
9
Remove from the heat and serve over the cauliflower rice. Fried egg is optional but recommended.
