Ingredients
- 8 ounces skinless chicken breast
- 1 head small head cabbage (sub for cauliflower rice)
- 1 sliced red bell pepper
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoon coconut aminos
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2-3 tablespoon oil for cooking
- 1 tablespoon seasame oil
Instructions
- Chop all veggies and chicken up, then season chicken with salt and pepper
- In a hot frying pan make sure it's big enough to hold all the ingredients set it to high heat
- Place chicken, onion, broccoli and red peppers. Continue cooking until everything has gotten a color to it. Example the chicken having a brown sear
- Then, place cabbage or cauliflower rice in. If looking dry add a little oil. Add about 1/2 teaspoon of salt and then add in coconut aminos. See notes about frozen cauliflower rice.
- Lower heat to medium/high and continue cooking until cabbage or cauliflower has softened. Test how soft or crunchy the veggies are to your liking. Taste to see if you need to add more coconut aminos or salt. Add only 1 tsp coconut aminos at a time or 1/2 tsp salt at a time you don't want to go over. See notes why...
- Remove from heat and add tablespoon of seasme oil then serve.
Notes
Helpful Recipe Tips
- Add more oil when needed. Due to the heat the veggies or meat can start to look a little dry. Simply add a little more oil when needed. Taste test for the sauce as well or salt.
- Frozen or fresh cauliflower rice, if using fresh you can toss it in the pan. When using frozen, thaw it first so you can drain as much of that excess water as possible. This is why I always say taste test. A recipe like this you never know how much water the vegetables contain which can wash out flavor. To add, if rice is already cooked from frozen the cook time is even shorter!
